No, i think he can call microsoft, and if he proves it's his disc (like a receipt) and they will i'm not sure but either give him a new disc, or find his product key (which is properly saved on the disc somewhere)
But you only need the product key to reinstall it, so just be careful not to F*** up your computer or something (unless you havn't installed it yet(abit late to buy it) then try calling but you will need the code given to you when you install it, and when you put the disc in)
