re: Making your own Windows 98 distro CD Sunday, March 12, 2006 at 8:50 pm Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by gewg_ (4444 messages posted) |I had no idea at the time that it was illegal to copy the soft ware. | Nick | From Jeno's post, it appears that the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 has turned many of us into slack-jawed automatons, afraid of our own shadows. OEMs copy Windows CDs to hard drives all the time so it is obviously NOT illegal to make of copy of one.[1] |...to the guy who said what I'd do for an id key | I was the one who mentioned that. |I purchased the copy legally. I planned on using its original key again. | One Windows Product Key is a representation of your license to INSTALL Windows on a single machine. You wouldn't believe the number of folks we get here who try to do a clean install--without their Product Keys in hand. They want to know how to find their numbers now that they have formatted their drives. [1] You can make as many copies of the install CD as you want --as long as you don't try to sell them or make additional installations.
