So yeah, you probably read the title, what can I do to fix that?
Call up Microsoft, you go through the automated system enter the key and they spit out a new auth code for you. You may or may not need to speak to a customer service rep. I had one key that I used a lot and I had to explain it to them to get it "renewed."
If you're using the same motherboard then you can go through Microsoft's automated call procedure.
