</div>There should be a couple .exe or .com files...one's a command-prompt<br>

If that's a full i386 folder, that is.<br>

Be aware you probably still need the key unless it's hidden in an<br>
installation routine, as some OEM installs were. Or it may be on the<br>
case somewhere. For reasons known only to Redmond Windows will happily<br>
wipe out your drive and your data before actually asking for the key, at<br>
which point you're screwed without a backup.
