I have to setup at least one machine in my garage with windows in order to take advantage of wireless USB that I already have, everything else out there will be linux.

I purchased OEM license keys (so I would have a few spare licenses - just in case I needed them) They came with the WinME start guide, and COA. The dealer is reputable. The problem is when I try and use the key during an installation. I aleady have 3 installs of winme at home and when I try an install using one of those CD's with the OEM key, the OEM key is rejected. Am I doing something wrong? Is there a command line option I need to use to make the OEM key work?

I'm probably wrong but ....

Anytime I've dealt with OEM software keys - you have to have oem install disks for them to work. It really sucks:|

Hope you get it working - sorry I can't help.:eek:

Fixed it, now I know why the Dr has bi-focals coming in for me on Monday.

the KX combination in the middle of the key looked like KK to me.

Fat finger strikes again!
