Just yesterday I checked around for Halo: Combat Evolved in my room, but my mom had just moved everything around in it. I find the disc, but no case. This is odd, because I just had the game installed before I formatted my computer. Now I have a scratched up Halo game, but with no way to play it.

What can I do?

Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Your best bet is to phone up Microsoft and request a new product key. Explain to them that the sleeve is missing along with the product key and they should help you.

No, that's why I need my cd-key.

I tried it but I do not have Halo installed, so it said there was no cd-key.

Who should I call about this?

Try calling Microsoft. If you have the original disk they maybe able to confirm that by the numbers on the inner circle of the disk. Not sure if it will work but it is your ONLY option at this point.

Microsoft or Gearbox?

EDIT: Gearbox doesn't have a support line that I could find so I called Microsoft. They gave me a key and I'm playing again.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.
