I have moved and have lost my cd key for both Vista 32 and 64 bit. I still
have the media just not the CD-Key. I was apart of the beta and was send
both copies with the cdkeys. Is there a lookup tool or an email address that
I can use to try and recover my two cd-keys?

Unfortunately I reinstalled XP cause I was having driver issues and came back
after they were fixed and now can't activate my copy of vista cause i don't
have my key and my time is running out and I really don't wanna reinstall xp
cause I lost my key. :-(

Hi,

Log into connect.microsoft.com and try the "contact us" area. If you lost
the keys, and wiped out the system, then there are no tools you can use to
retrieve the key as there is nothing to retrieve.

If you have lost your install key just send me an email to
with your version of windows vista and I will give you an install key. and
you are really funny "That Guy"....thought this was a place for help and not
criticism.
