Vista 5231 Key Invalid.......but it should work!

| I have a MSDN subscription.
I have downloaded Vista 5231 from the site.
But....
I'm having problems with the product key on 5231 - my key doesnt seem
to be valid?? I downloaded the ISO from MSDN subscriptions, but there
wasn't a 'get product key' button on the page - only the download.
A bit  I searched the net trying to find out why not on MSDN, I
came accross couple of threads, one saying that the key from 5219 is
what I need and another saying that MS were forced to release a PDC key
for 5219 due to activation issues - I have the key that was released so
does this mean my key has been removed from the valid list now?
I have also tried my MSDN subscription key for Beta1 and that doesn't
work either.
What should I do?
Who should I contact to get a valid key?
Why is there no key available on MSDN subscription?
Regards
Joe

| The key is listed. I also had a bit of a hard time locating it but it is =
there. Go through the page 1 by one and you will see it

| argh - still can't see it - I appear to be suffering from terminal
stupidity :)
I am looking on the same page as where the download button is.... does
the key reside on a seperate page? If so where?

| If you are looking for the words Vista it will not be listed as such. It =
is listed as Windows Vista CTP Builds
and is the 7th from the bottom on the Product Keys Page
