gordonwd Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 I'm running WinXP and the recovery wizard asks for my product key. However, my PC originally came with WinME installed and I later received an upgrade CD for XP. As far as I can tell, there was no new product key that came with the upgrade, especially since the XP registration was done online after it was installed. I do have the product key on the PC that went with the original ME installation. Is this what I should use for the Retrospect disaster wizard?

Mayoff Posted August 13, 2002 Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 The product key requested is the same key you would use to reinstall Windows. I suspect that even your XP upgrade came with some type of product key. It is in the same booklet that contained the XP CD-ROM. If you don't have an XP key, just type the ME key.

gordonwd Posted August 13, 2002 Author Report Share Posted August 13, 2002 I found that if I right-click on My Computer and select Properties, the window that comes up shows my 20-digit "Product key/ID". I was able to just copy & paste this into the Retrospect dialog and the disaster recovery wizard continued OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
