Question Extract cd-key?
So, my RAID0 array is starting to flake on me... sometimes i will turn it on and it says my array has failed, and it will take multiple restarts or a cold boot to bring it back, but i think its just a matter of time.

so i will need to reinstall my OS, Vista x64, but i cant find my cd-key... how can i find out my cd-key, program? registry browsing? i downloaded one from a website, but i scanned it for viruses and it found a worm in it.

does anyone have a program theyve used before that would work for me?
