Title: Re: way way off topic Post by Greg_650 on 04/26/05 at 05:34:24 So, you keep your Savage in your computer room. Good idea. I don't know about MS Word, but I know that there are "rebel" websites that post key codes for everything including your Savage. Try a search? |

Title: Re: way way off topic Post by russ on 04/26/05 at 06:49:46 If you are visiting those "sites". Have some anti spyware and popup blocker software installed and use a different browser than IE. Microsoft's new and free anti spyware is quite effective. Use Firefox for a browser that includes a pop up killer. The best site to search for that stuff is http://astalavista.box.sk/ However, why bother? Open Office pretty much does everything MS office does, does some things MS Office doesn't and is free. :) My two cents |

Yeah, like Kazaa? One visit there was enough for me, and I had crap lurking for a long time. I too use the MS Spyware Beta....it does seem to work pretty well too. |

Title: Re: way way off topic Post by russ_g on 04/27/05 at 08:22:01 Hey gazab44. Change your browser to Firefox. It's not even that it's any better than IE. It's just that most of the scripts to take advantage of your Browsers weakness are specifically designed for IE. |

Title: Re: way way off topic Post by slopoke on 04/29/05 at 07:04:35 I talked to my computer guy at work and he said that the code key will be on the Office 2003 CD case. Even if it was already installed when you bought the machine, they should have given you the CD that they used to install the program. Since each program is individual to the computer, the code on the case is the only one that will work. I hope this helps...... Slopoke |

Title: Re: way way off topic Post by russ_g on 04/29/05 at 08:27:24 That would be true if you were re-installing it. If you start with a fresh install you should be able to use another OEM key. The problem is that Microsoft has different types of keys for different distributions. The following applies to XP but i'm sure the same applies to Office. Anyway if you're really really stuck and you don't want to try Open Office - i'd just go buy another Compaq that comes with 2003 Office, open it up to get the key and then return the darn thing (ya ok i'm sleazy). Just buy it at a place with an easy return policy..........did you try call Compaq tech support? *********************************************** Unlocking WinXP's setupp.ini ========================= WinXP's setupp.ini controls how the CD acts. IE is it an OEM version or retail? First, find your setupp.ini file in the i386 directory on your WinXP CD. Open it up, it'll look something like this: ExtraData=707A667567736F696F697911AE7E05 Pid=55034000 The Pid value is what we're interested in. What's there now looks like a standard default. There are special numbers that determine if it's a retail, oem, or volume license edition. First, we break down that number into two parts. The first five digits determines how the CD will behave, ie is it a retail cd that lets you clean install or upgrade, or an oem cd that only lets you perform a clean install? The last three digits determines what CD key it will accept. You are able to mix and match these values. For example you could make a WinXP cd that acted like a retail cd, yet accepted OEM keys. Now, for the actual values. Remember the first and last values are interchangable, but usually you'd keep them as a pair: Retail = 51882 335 Volume License = 51883 270 OEM = 82503 OEM So if you wanted a retail CD that took retail keys, the last line of your setupp.ini file would read: Pid=51882335 And if you wanted a retail CD that took OEM keys, you'd use: Pid=51882OEM *********************************************** |
