KEY IS NOT VALID TO USE IN THIS SPECIFIED STATE

I have HP dv6 Pavilion Win 7 64bits and I decided to uninstall my PES 14 due to lagging and re-install again but when I tried reinstalling it, KEY IS NOT VALID TO USE pops out when I finished putting the PES 14 key. So I decided to open a new window user and try to install PES 14 on another user account but works perfect but lagging PES 14. I have been using AMD Raedon Mobility 5650 since last year due to my window update history list and I played PES 14 smoothly without lagging or any problem until on day I decided to play but telling me my RAM can't play PES 14 so I decided to update my drive but despite updating the drive, PES 14 still lagging. Even game booster wont help PES 14 lagging. so I have 2 problem now.

Do you play it online? If you play it online, lag has nothing to do with graphics card, it has to do with server being heavily used.

which graphic card driver you were using when pes 14 was not lagging, maybe to revert back to that version. Shutdown your antimalware and see if pes 14 is lagging. run game in windowed modeAMD Cards :http://www.tweakguides.com/ATICAT_8.html 1) enable Anti-aliasing method : Adaptive Multisampling2) enable Triple bufferingCan your computer run Pro Evolution Soccer 2014? http://www.systemrequirementslab.com/CYRI/Requirements/pro-evolution-soccer-2014/11757?p=r

You could try to find updated drivers through the manufacturer websites, or install previous versions of the AMD graphics driver. Many times updated graphics drivers can cause games to perform better, while other games perform worse. The only other suggestion I can give is to uninstall PES 14, remove all traces of the game (Iobit's Uninstaller should be sufficient), and try to install the game again. Also, go into Catalyst Control Center/AMD Control Center by right-clicking on the desktop and select the control center in the context menu. Check the settings for video, gaming, and performance to see if any changes would help.
