Guest tinkle Posted December 28, 2007 Posted December 28, 2007 Re: product key for windows98 I actually just went through this today, trying to find the product key on my moms computer......this worked for me: start your computer in command prompt only by hitting the F8 key when your computer is starting up or the ALT key Choose command prompt only then type in C:\windows\command\Find /i "ProductKey" C:\windows\system.dat there is a space between Find and / and again between "i" and Product, and again after Key".

Many people do not even know what a command line is. The software product keys or serial numbers etc. on a computer can be found via a variety of ways, but for people who can't deal with command lines, using a registry editor/viewer, or using general file viewers, Googling for a number is the easiest. I could have given him MY number and saved him the Googling, I suppose. Don't top post. -- The only cure for stupidity is death. The only cure for brilliance is death.
