| I'm currently in another country (Japan) and have possibly accidentally
| deleted some possibly important components of windows to clear some memory.
| So I need to partially reinstall windows xp.
| I brought my windows xp install kit disc but not the product key which it
| is promting me for. The product key I suspect is packed away in a box
| somewhere in NZ.
| I have entered the product key before on the pc in question so is there
| anyway of retrieving it from somewhere in the pc? Or anyway at all of getting
| hold of this product key for this cd kit? The sticker on the casing of my pc
| is the wrong product key from a former installation
| I don't have to buy windows xp all over again do I?
|
| Help I need to finish my work.
