I have the key still but my disc is ruined. I need a copy from someone if you have it. It's a custom build computer so the HP/Sony etc discs won't work normally and all i have are those.

Retail, OEM, MSDN, VLK ?

^ You forgot the not for resale discs they sent to action pack subscribers, as the action pack keys only work with those discs (at least that was the case with XP, I never installed Vista).

if you're a student just join IEEE. Free copies up in there.

Torrent?

Know someone with a technet subscription?

if you have a key why wouldn't you just torrent it?

I'm not sure which version my key is for. It worked with an hp install disc that came with my laptop. And I don't like using torrents. Does anyone have a copy or no? Ill give you 20 bucks to burn a copy and bring it by. As long as it works.

i can download it from MSDN for you - microsoft simplified licensing a lot so your key should work.

no longer needed, i just went to windows 7

btw - anyone who has access to MSDN - the 64 bit and 32 bit windows 7 keys are interchangeable, so if you need two 32 bit versions you can use the 64 bit key
