Losst Product Key for Office XP meekocat 17.07.2006 03:40:02 My hard drive crashed...bought a new laptop and now I'm discovering that I cannot find the product key to my Office XP Suite. I bought it through Dell but it was not pre-installed. I have the original disks. Any chance I can get the product key from MicroSoft? And what's the point of registering with them if they can't keep track of their customers and what they buy? The software is not cheap and I have yet to bootleg software from them. meekocat
