How to choose an image for Windows XP Pro OEM?
There are several older PCs with Windows XP Proffesional OEM stickers. The sticker says 2004. The original disc is lost.
The task is to install Windows and activate it in order to avoid problems with organs.
The problem is that when installing a clean OEM image found on the Internet, it says that the key does not fit. I tried a dozen different images (both SP1 and SP3) - the key does not fit anywhere, activation also does not take place either via the Internet or by phone.
Tell me what to do in this case?

try trying the "original" images
I faced a similar problem - I decided it by enumeration of the above distributions.
PS as a worst case scenario - this serial may be blocked :D for some reason.
From experience - XP OEM got up on laptops from native disks and activated without entering a key, and was not activated with keys from a sticker from any other disks.
If the computers are branded - look here for installation disks.
If there are self-collections, and there are documents for the purchase indicating that it was bought with XP OEM - put any XP OEM and activate with any key.
If there are no documents for the purchase, this is an empty hassle.
