Did you give your cd key out on the internet, or maybe a friend stole a glance of it?

You have 3 options here:

Tell your friend to disable your CD code, and buy his own CD

Call microsoft, see what they can do in this situation

Buy a new CD for halo, which would come with a new CD

Those are your only 3 legal options (that I can think of)

Idk if you have to buy a cd to get a serial number.....

Call Microsoft, they will tell you

They may get mad and tell you they cant help you since you gave out your key so tell them you left your box at a friends and he registered his ce with it also or some bs excuse like that. Not just "Well my friend didnt have halo PC or a key so i thought i would illegally give him mine"

u don't have to tell them that. just ask for a new key, they tell u the price and then buy it

Waverunner · Post by **Waverunner** » Mon Apr 11, 2005 2:45 pm

Ya, you wouldn't have to tell them anything, I think they sell the keys commercially.
