Lowman Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 We have a VERY old computer we are donating to a womenn's shelter. It has windows 95 installed, but we lost the product key code. Anyone know of a code we can use to get it to finish installing? thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twitterbait Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 I might have a few (censored) laying around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
impur Posted March 30, 2006 Share Posted March 30, 2006 Does it load to windows? If so do this: From your Start Menu, choose Run, then type REGEDIT in the box and click OK. For Windows 95, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion and look for an entry in the right pane called "ProductId" Otherwise i have about 8 or 10 different disks with product keys i can give you. I'll have to find them though, they are packed since i just moved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barelycuda Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Do they need more computers? If so let me know. I may have a couple of leads on some pc's if it would help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JManrow Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 If the PC is running and has access to the net, go to http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml and the program will give you the product key of the disc that was used for the Windows installation.
