Hi guys, my laptop comes with preinstalled Windows 8 on it. I am trying to do a clean installation of Windows 8 on my new ssd which i just installed. I got to a point where they asked me for my product key which i entered. However, they rejected my product key. Can anyone help me?
Thanks in advanced!

You need to check the windows version that you are trying to install, how did you get it? It's a CD copy or you downloaded it? What is the version of the produck key you got? You will need to match this, you can't get a Windows 8.1 Ultimate using a Windows 8 Pro key.

Hi, thanks for the solution. My Windows is already activated on my hdd, But when i try to enter it on the Windows 8 setup, they said. This product key cannot be used to install a retail version of Windows 8
