Changing Sharepoint 2007 Enterprise key
We have a server that is running SharePoint 2007 which is activated with an MSDN Enterprise license. We have a recently purchased Enterprise license key and would like to apply it on the existing install. Under Central Administration, I cannot use Convert License Type because the text box will not accept any input under "Enter the Product Key", presumably since the system detects an existing Enterprise license.
Is there a way to change the existing Enterprise license to a valid one to be used in a production environment?

Maybe you need to log in as the farm admin account?

MOSS SP2 install originally put the Sharepoint install into trial mode (by accident), and it strikes me this is what you want to achieve.
I'm afraid to say that this might involve a registry hack. I'm not sure what keys need changing, but I'm confident this would be unsupported by Microsoft.
