All help REALLY appreciated Thanks Ryan If the existing Windows 98 is still bootable, even in Safe Mode, then you can find the Product Key by using REGEDIT and searching for the value ProductKey. If the Windows 98 is not bootable but the drive has not yet been reformatted then you can still find the product by booting the computer with a Windows 98 Startup Disk, changing to the Windows directory and using the FIND utility to search the file \Windows\System.dat for the value ProductKey type: C:\Windows\Command\Find /N "ProductKey" C:\Windows\System.dat (Note: ProductKey must be typed in upper and lower case letters as shown and there is a space after: "Find" after: "/N" and after: "ProductKey") (command information courtesy MVP Ron Badour) Good luck Ron Martell Duncan B.C.
