It may be looking for a key to unlock the Windows Anytime Update disc.
I did not have this problem. But I bought my upgrade from Microsoft
and it downloaded a key. The 1st 2 keys I downloaded from Microsoft's
Digital Locker did not work - also the email they sent did not work -
I finally downloaded another key and saved it under a different name.
Maybe you have another type of key - the 25- digit key you get on the
back of MS CDs. If so Microsoft Customer service may be able to help
you - if not you may be out of luck!
