Crap - CD key

Game Key Lost.

Hi all. I'm just getting back into SH4 now that the 1.4 patch has been released. I think I used to post as Schlageter-JG26?

Anyway, I jumped the gun and uninstalled the program so I could reinstall a fresh copy. I had a ton of modified old files that I haven't used, so it seemed wiser to start fresh and try out some of the mods and tweaks that have come out in the last year since I stopped playing shortly after the release due to bugs.

So here's my problem. I've got the install cd, the bonus disc, the control card, pacific map, and ship ID fold-outs. What I DON'T have is the original box, which is where I suspect the game key is. If it is in the manual, can someone let me know? I'm sure I still have the manual kicking around but it just needs finding. The box, on the other hand, got tossed. I keep all my game cds in a carousel and (with this exception) write all my keys in an Excel file which I keep several copies of. SH3 is in there.... SH4 is not.

If the key is not in the manual, is there a way for me to go about retrieving the key from my registry????

I'd rather use the key I paid for than go online for some shared copy. I might not to multi-player, but I'd still rather be legit.

Thanks for any help.
And to any nay-sayers, I can provide photo proof of everything I've got.
