Thats useless now. Perhaps if you tried to contact Microsoft with all the serial numbers & proof of purchases, they might give you another free or discounted software. But that might take forever to get a reply.

If you have the CD and the proof it was registed to you you can call the software company they will issue you an cd key there are programs you can download that will also show the keys licenced on your computer, go to www.tucows.com and look in utilities for a program called SIW for windows System info for windows ver 1.64 oct 9 2006 and it will tell you much more about your computer, it's a free download. C-ya. DO NOT USE DATA TO RIP THE KEYS YOU CAN GO TO JAIL.... OR AT LEAST CRASH YOUR PC.
