Hi Andy,

If you haven't formatted already, run Belarc Adviser.  Among other things,
it will give you all the keys to known software on the computer, including
Windows XP, and Word 2000.

All the best

Hi Andrew - It's an internet licence for JAWS, so it sounds like all I need
to do is go to the FS site, with my JAWS user code?

So, will I need my motherboard CD when installing XP?

I've got the CD for word2000, but as it was an OEM version on my first
machine, I haven't got the code!
