Hi,
yesterday, I installed SP1 and now my Computer wants me to activate it
again, but it's a total legal Version. So I klicked activate now, and what
happens, This key is already used. What can I do?

You'll have to activate via telephone - it appears that this is a known issue when
downloading SP1 from WU.

Adding more information:

"You are prompted to activate Windows Vista after you install Windows Vista
Service Pack 1"
