OK....Let's face it---people lose things.

With that out of the way, on to the question...

I have a Win2k pro CD that I bought in 2000 (heh). However, I have lost the piece of paper that has the product key on it (on the back, under the CD tray).

Can I call Microsoft, and ask them to look up the product key that I registered with, and then give me the key?

As for verification (that this is a legitimate copy), could I:

* give them the serial number of the CD (that's printed on the top-center of the disc
* read them the info as reported by a CD info utility (suck as Nero's InfoTool)

Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

they might ask for proof of purchase.. otherwise it shouldnt be any problems..

Do you have it installed on any other PC's right now? If so, get magic jelleybean keyfinder. It'll retrieve the key from an installed version.
