If you get your windows disk as OEM because you bought a prebuilt computer from DELL or something, I believe it will only let you use the key once before you have to call them up. I think the ones you buy retail allow you to do it 3 times before you call. I could be wrong, but the values are somewhere in that range if I remember correctly.
