Hi all,

This is abit of a strange one. I've seen that if you owned Halo: Combat Evolved for PC you get a special perk. I've been trying to find my CD key but have thus far been un-successfull.

I have tried logging onto Gamespy, and checking my old Emails but that doesn't seem to return anything. I have even emailed Microsoft, but they just came back with the below.

Please do not reply to this email as it is an automatic response sent from an un-monitored email address.

Very useful as this doesn't solve my issue and I can't even reply to it.

I remember playing online with it? I'm even signed up to Planet Halo. I can remember the Email address it was registered to, and my gamespy ID. Surely Bungie can tell me my key from this or re-assign it to my current Email address?

If not, do you think it would be worth buying a pre-owned version of Halo and trying to use that?

Thanks in advance,

Boost.

I don't know if anyone can easily get you your CD key, but your suggestion here seems like a clever way to do it. You may have to get two or three copies just to make sure you get one with a key that was once activated and played online. Hopefully it will still have its key.

Well if the game is still installed on your PC you're in luck. This tool finds the key in the registry so your can write it down. Hope that helps.

I must of had about 6 PC's since I had that so the CD key retrieval software is out of scope lol!

My friend has a copy of it that he doesn't want, he used to play online alot.

Do you think bungie will mind if he gives me his game as I lost mine?
