Hello, you may want to check out,
Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder v1.41
The Magical Jelly Bean Keyfinder is a freeware utility that retrieves your
Product Key (cd key) used to install windows from your registry. It has the
options
to copy the key to clipboard, save it to a text file, or print it for
safekeeping. It works on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, Server 2003,
Office 97,
and Office XP. This version is a quick update to make it work with Windows
Server 2003.
then, if you want or need to use the WinXPUnattendedSetUpKit, you will have
the product key.

Subject: Re: two Jaws questions before buying a computer
Hi
Ok, let me clear this up!!
You enter the Windows XP product code when you first install Windows xp,
either home or pro, doesn't matter.
Yes you will need sighted assistance for it, if, this is, you're doing it
yourself. If you take it to a place that fixes computers,or if you're
buying a new one, there should be no need to enter the product code, it
should already be done for you.
Then, when you get it home, everything should be up and running and you can
*then* install JAWS. slow talking guy?
I installed JAWS again today after a computer crash and didn't hear any
slow talking guy lol. You folks are...interesting individuals to say the
very least.
heh!
