Full reinstall. There is no simple 'change'.

Yes, but you will have to wipe the old windows install. Just put in your other windows disk and select the hard drive that your current install is on. It will ask you if you want to format the drive and delete everything off it. Select ok, and go through the install process.
Here is a support file if you dont have the media but you have the key:

'incompatible' with what? What is telling you this?

 

[Jeremite]

Please describe the steps you're doing, and exactly where it says 'incompatible'.
