You can use the ISO just fine... you just can't use the key. You'll have to buy a new one. The key on your current pc is linked to it's motherboard. Windows 10 won't activate with it.

I have no signature

Look at the guide in my signature.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

You have to buy a new key. Otherwise it is illegal.

Yes, just skip the key.

If you have done the upgrade earlier, it will activate automatically without a key. If not, you still don't have to activate. because windows 10 is actually usable when not activated. No time limit, no bugging, no black background, just some subtle hints that will appear over time.
