if you registered it and have the cdkey call MS and asked them if
they could send you another disk, tell them the disk you have is damaged.
Hey I don't even know if you had to registered it. All they can say is no.
One other thought is you have the cdkey sticker on your machine
so you could probably borrow a disk or have a friend make you a copy.
If you don't have the sticker on the machine you can find programs on the
net to retrieve it from your system.
