Are you sure you don't have O and 0 mixed up when entering that product key? If it comes down to it, contact microsoft to get your key verified by them to make sure it actually works. You aren't using an 8.1 Key with Windows 8 are you? or vice versa.

I downloaded the image file from the internet. The disc I burn few months ago, get scratched. Because of this it does not installing. Then I burn a new disc and and installed it correctly. Now I have Windows 8.1 Pro.... Thanks to all of you....
