Bit Locker encrypted hard drive / the key didn't work

My C drive was bit locker encrypted when I inserted it in another laptop. When inserting it back into my laptop, the bit locker window opened before the login and i couldn't access my computer anymore. I found the recovery key from the other computer that should unlock my hard drive and entered it on my computer. It said that it wasn't successful. I tried inserting the encrypted hard drive back to the other laptop and unlock it from there, it said that the drive has already been unlocked, however it wasn't showing in the list of available drives like before.

1. Why didn't the key work and what can I do from this point to recover my drive?

2. If I reset the drive, will Windows be also wiped from it or will it stay?
