I've found in the past that =sometimes= the trial version won't accept
the key from a store-purchased system. Why this is so, I don't know,
as it has only happened occasionally. But I've seen it happen so
whenever someone goes from a downloaded trial version to a
commercially-purchased product, I always recommend an uninstall and
then reinstall from the purchased CD or DVD. No loss of data, and it
avoids headaches down the road.
