Post subject: Generic Windows 98 Product Key Archived from groups: microsoft>public>win98>gen_discussion (more info?)
I decided to re-post this so that if someone googles for this subject,
they will find it.
I got this key from Microsoft. They said it would work with *all*
CDs, and said, "feel free to pass this on".
I guess since they don't support it anymore, there's no reason to
keep it a secret anymore. Anyway, the generic key is:
VP9VV-VJW7Q-MHY6W-JK47R-M2KGJ
Be sure you look closely at the letters. On my LCD monitor, it is
difficult to see the difference between the single letter W and VV,
which is two letters "V".
In the first block, VP9 is followed by two V's. The rest are W's.

That doesn't sound like Microsoft to me, but I don't know much.
In most of my programs I can't tell rn from m. or rrm from who knows
what. This one has serifs and I can see the gaps, but the ones
that don't have them are real hard to read.
If you are inclined to email me
for some reason, remove NOPSAM

[Chuckle! Chuckle!] Hell! they already got that stuff the first time you plugged into the web! HA!
Anyways, yes the code worked for me too. Strangely enough though, when I tried using it for same OS install to another HD(same machine), it wouldn't accept the code!
I tried it (and other) keys at least five different times, but to no avail, but now, as I have come back for my second visit to this thread to reaffirm what i copied the first time was was correct (and it was), it has just now accepted the key!.....Talk about weird!

Wow,
Thankyou for posting that key, I thought I was screwed just now trying to install windows 98 on an older computer when it asked me for my product key. I wasn't expecting it at all, and I wasn't expecting to be able to find a useful key on the web either.
