Halo CD Key recovery Any suggestions on how I can recover the CD Key for Microsoft Halo PC game. I bought the game for my son for Christmas. He affixed the label to the laptop for safekeeping and it has now faded. We don't have a problem with the game now, but my daughter's laptop recently crashed and I know all too well of the problems that are incurred without the original CDs and product keys. I am trying to create a file of all our software product keys for future emergencies. Any assistance will be appreciated. Thanks! |
Is the laptop usable at all? If so i can install my copy and see if i can find a registry key with the cd key in it. |
Yes. My son's computer is fine. My daughter's crashed and I just got it back up and working, but some of the original stuff was lost because we no longer had the original cds or cases. I can't even find the proper driver for her modem because gateway doesn't have the correct download on their site. I am just trying to take precautionary measures in case I run into a similar situation with my son's. I downloaded produkey from this site, but it only gives me XP and Office product keys. I was hoping to find a similar utility that will read the product keys for other software. I found a site that listed a utility as a free download, but it only gives the partial key unless I purchase the full registered version. I called Microsoft and they want to charge half of what I paid for the game. What a rip-off! Anyway enough with my rambling. Any assistance is appreciated. Thanks! |
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft Games\Halo value name is PID, but this is only the product ID. After googling a little, i did find this though: Quote:
*this will only work if you already had a valid cd key, so no such luck for the scammers out there :p |
Whats a HEX key Whats a hex character |
hex is a number in base 16, similar to binary which is base 2 or octal which is base 8. |
William has already solved up the problem. You need to run regedit to access the registries . Go to Start --> Run --> Regedit Then follow the process by William |
