Of course there is but no-one on a MS newsgroup is likely to help you find
it.

Now with the program being 8 years old I wouldn't know why not, just think
of the discarded programs in that time, there should be lots of keys
available now, they have been paid for and all you protect is ten year old
technology, that will never some back again. I suggest to do a google search
and see how far you can get.
I think it's great that someone gets to know the wonder world of Win98SE
where you can actually install something, instead of giving all rights to
Windows Vista and hope that it is done in a way you would approve of.

Sorry guys, but I just discovered that all my games are played back to the
Ubisoft server, without me knowing it! You gotta love Vista!

On August 12, Steve Winograd incorrectly stated:

There's no legitimate site for downloading a product key for any
version of Windows.

Several others then stated that it was unlikely that anyone would post
a useful answer.

But on August 15, I posted this:

http://www.psico.univ.trieste.it/pub...8_serials.html
http://lolekserwer.friko.pl/LOLEK/NS/SN.txt

For product keys for other MS products, do individual google
searches for these:

DDTPV , KRJQ8 , F3VWH , M4676 , BW6BT , TQWT9 , K2WR7

The above links are still functional.

Three months after the original post, someone called "tiffany"
mysteriously reposted the original Eric Ng message without adding any
new content.

Then, "pjp" responded to the "tiffany" post by falsely stating:

Of course there is but no-one on a MS newsgroup is likely to
help you find it.

Well, pjp, not only did I post an answer back in August (4 days after
Eric asked his question), and not only have I reposted my answer here,
I will post some keys right here, right now:

F73HC-XYXR3-R34GV-B4F9M-XWTR8
P8M8D-X9F2M-37GPT-MKTMV-VVX8T
VTXBY-99K94-9C6CW-Q2FR4-8Q4VQ
BCM7H-BH7XW-JQC9R-Y3GDB-26B93
KXX9H-QVH8V-RP4VR-2XQ9X-VW2JH

So pjp, you might want to think the next time you stick your foot in
your mouth and post a response to a 3-month-old usenet post.

What's incorrect about that statement?

[Pah, children: any UMRAt will tell you I'm up to posting replies to
two-year-old posts at the moment ... (-:]

DISCLAIMER: THE FOLLOWING IS PROVIDED FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY. DO NOT DO THIS. IT IS ILLEGAL IN THE UNITED STATES. IT
VIOLATES THE MICROSOFT LICENSE AGREEMENT THAT YOU AGREE TO WHEN YOU INSTALL WINDOWS98. THIS INFORMATION WAS SENT TO ME ANONYMOUSLY.
I DO NOT KNOW IF IT ACTUALLY DOES WHAT IT PURPORTS TO DO. I DO NOT WANT TO FIND OUT. DO NOT DO IT.

"To bypass the product key on Windows 98, do the following:

copy the entire Win98 directory from the CD to a directory on the hard drive

extract precopy1.cab pidgen.dll enter
debug pidgen.dll enter
-e 1ed7 enter
xxxx:1ED7 39. 8b enter
-e 1edf enter
xxxx:1EDF 39. 8b enter
-w enter
-q enter

For those with a hex editor, patch offset 1dd7h and 1ddfh from bytecode 39h to bytecode 8bh. Debug works fine (file is 64k so no
segment adjustments are necessary) for patching small files like this one.

run SETUP and type in ANYTHING for the serial number. The only exception is all zeros; that's apparently a backdoor that was
shutdown before pidgen.dll was released.

Win98 will use the modified pidgen.dll file instead of the unmodified one stored inside of precopy1.cab archive.

"I read and tested your procedure for installing WIN 98 without a product key ( "debug pidgen.dll ..." ) and can tell you that it
works even after you have installed WIN 98 from the CD. When you get to the screen that asks you for the key, click on "Cancel",
this will shut down Windows. Reboot in DOS mode ( I used the startup disk created earlier ) Go into the \WINDOWS directory and do
the Debug routine to edit pidgen.dll . When done, reboot the machine. You will be brought back to the screen that asks for your name
and company name. Enter the data. Next is the license agreement screen; after you accept, you will be back at the product key
screen. This time, it will accept any key as mentioned in you FAQ, and the installation will complete."
