first of all before i go into detail, can i register the card before its even installed into the computer?

because at the moment its still in the box and i made an account on the xfx site and when i tryed registering the product it says my personal activation code has been entered incorrectly, i have tried entering it in many ways, for example (xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx-xxxxx lower case and upper case) also (xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx upper and lower case) and neither work.

And yes i have emailed them about it a while ago and i got no reply

Thanks for any help provided.
