I've searched through a number of posts here and have not yet found the answer to my question. I've downloaded halo ce and it says i need cd key. Is there a key that is actually needed or can we use the cd key that came with our copy of halo? I've tried that twice and it still didn't work. Any help is appreciated.

You need to use the same CD key you used for your original copy of Halo.
About that not working: I don't know, you must have typed the wrong thing somehow.

You're making a mistake in typing in your CD key then. You should be able to use the same one that came with your copy of Halo PC.

Probably a typo. After all, you only tried it twice, everyone makes mistakes the first or the second time.

Ok, now that i've got that working i'm trying to dl some new maps. I've got winzip to open these files, but everytime i try and open them, it says that it isn't the complete file name, what's going on?

first of all, download winrar.....here near the bottom of the page click your language. Next try downloading your maps again, and unzip them to My computer>Local Disc(C:)>Program files>Microsoft Games>Halo Custom Edition(or Halo CE i forget) > Maps
Voila! Now try the maps by loading up halo!

He's not asking about maps...

Use your Halo PC (copy installed) CD key for it. It should work. If it doesn't, you have the wrong CD key.
