My laptop crashed and took SQL2005 Developer Edition with it. I need to
re-install it on a new laptop, but I can't find the product key for the CD. I
have the orignal, "Genuine" MS CD, and I have the email from Amazon showing I
bought it. I've looked for a phone# or email address I can call to deal with
this, but all I can find are numbers for Windows/Office keys.

Does anyone know a # I can call or an email address to deal with this?
