I purchased a windows 98SE awhile back and it got
seperated from the case. Is there any way to find the code
key? The part# on the disk reads 0499 part no.X03-77962

Chris

Have you thought to look on the front cover of the booklet "Getting Started Microsoft Windows98"?

~~~~~~

Hope this helps.

If the system is still up do this: click start, click run, type in: regedit,
click OK, click the plus sign at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, click the plus sign at
Software, click the plus sign at Microsoft, click the plus sign at Windows,
click the words: CurrentVersion, in the right panel find the ProductKey. The
ProductKey must be used exactly as you see it without the quotes.

WARNING do not make any changes in the registry!

That's the registration number, not the product key.
