If your CD-Key is not being accepted then you need to contact the
distributers of the game and ask for assistance. For UT 2k4 I think you need
to contact Atari, and for other games you can usually pick up the manual and
in the back will be tech support phone numbers or contact information.

Best of luck.

If you have had it installed using the same CD then there is no issue with
the CD key, The install is not verified on-line during install, the simple
honest answer is that although you state you are entering the key correct you
most definatley are not. Please double check that you are not confusing zeros
and the letter O, and 8 and B etc etc,

I state again if the CD-KEY worked before it should work now as well. I have
UT2004 running with no issues on my Vista Machine.

I assume you did the Vista Upgrade and you still have a UT2004 folder on
your computer?

My guess is this will not work but try deleting (or renaming) the UT install
folder
