That's the part that really bothers me. Key no longer 'approved', yet the
person is probably legal, same as the possible key mismatches VUL vs OEM vs
Mickey Mouse vs......  Or using the wrong cd to fix a problem causing a

nothing about it ( that I'm aware of anyway) now causing problems. Gee you
used someone else's CD to get a file , reformat and reinstall.
