Well, I have done something very stupid. I bought Windows XP Pro OEM version several months ago and I put the little sticker with my cd-key on the back of a jewel case and put my cd in it. Well, for some reason my cd and my jewel case got separated and now I cannot find my jewel case.
So, my delema is this. I own Windows XP Pro, have the CD in front of me, but can't install it because I lost my cd-key. I know, I am stupid. I have turned my house inside out looking for it, but it is nowhere to be found. I was wondering if there is anything legal I can do to get Windows XP installed again on my machine? Oh, yeah, I re-partitioned my hard drive and installed linux and Windows 2000 and was starting to install XP when I realized my cd-key was missing....
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
