Boing!
You could look for a tool called 'KeyFinderThing' - think it's .NET based, but can retrieve the key for Windows and some other products. I have used it in a very similar scenario (license key sticker had been scratched too much).
Time for bed, Zebedee.
Hello all:
I have a WinXP box that needs a re-install. I lost the license key (but it is a totally legitimate installed copy).
I go into Windows Explorer and click Help/About, but that does not display the key.
How can I go about displaying this key so I can do a virgin re-install?
Thanks.
