Title: Difference between Install Key & Registration Code
Post by: Maik on January 29, 2005, 04:59:31 pm

I am running Media Center 10.  Could someone please explain to me the difference between the Registration Code and the Install Key?  Yesterday my Media Center would not work, so I was emailed a new Registration Code and was told to find the Install Key, save it and I could use it for 14 days on another computer.  I couldn't find any Install Key.  Is it the same as the Registration Code?

From the FAQ(http://www.musicex.com/mediacenter/purchase.html):

On purchase, you receive a permanent Registration Code.  This is a proof of purchase that can be used at any time to acquire a new Install Key.  The install key must be used within 14 days of its generation, but as long as you have the permanent registration code, you can get a new key by visiting the restore page (more below).

I received my registration code and understand the concept.  I have never received a separate "install key".  Where do I find that?

Thank You

The Install Key Is Only Good For 14 Days, So If You Do Not Need It, Do Not Waste One Of Your Restores Getting It.

It Is really only needed when your having problems, or your installling this key on more than one computer that you own.
