    I installed Medal Of Honor Airborne on my computer, but I want to install it on my new computer. How would I go about locating the CD key. Can I find it within my registry? If so where would it be?

    If anywhere.. and I hope I'm not wrong.. I would try going to Run > Regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SOFTWARE > EA

    I don't know if games still put the cd-key in the registry.. but its worth a shot.

    or, if you registered your game, (or just go to start, ea, register) you can recover it online... i did that with BFME
