Exclamation My Car Won't Start...

When I bought the car ('98 Honda Accord LX), I was only given one valet key (grey) and one master key. Through my carelessness I have lost both keys but I managed to make a copy of the black key, but it was an unofficial copy, and now for some reason my car will not start.

I've considering hotwiring my car but is that going to be more a problem? And if it's possible, can anyone direct me as to where I can do this?

You cannot hotwire the car. You need to get a Honda key made, it will have a chip in it that tells the computer to let you start the car.
