I'll say again, IM NOT asking for an illegal copy, again, I'm not asking for an illegal copy

I lost my Halo CD case which had the halo CD key on it. I made a backup on my Ipod, which I can't find, and wrote it down on a piece of paper, which was thrown away.

So, is there an email where I can contact Microsoft or a phone number to get another one, Ive been looking for months and can't find my cd key anywhere. Also, is there a way for me to proove that I have a legit copy of Halo so Microsoft doesnt automatically assume that I'm being a cheap ass?

I thought that CD Key recovery tool was for Custom Edition?

Anyways, A proof of purchase (Reciept, or the barcode) might work. Although M$ has been known to not help people with lost CD Keys. You'll probably have to buy a new copy of Halo.

In order to play custom edition you need a regular halo pc key, ce doesn't cost money. So it wouldnt make sence to have a recovery for something that doesnt have a separate cd key.

I don't have the reciept cause I bought PC when it came out, so if this doesnt work im gonna have to buy another one :\

I've heard of cases where if you ask Microsoft politely, include proof of purchase, the box, possibly the receipt and a few other essentialls, they'll give you a new CD key for your efforts.
