Lost CD key on old PC game ...

I have an old Novalogic three-pack for the PC (Delta Force, Armored Fist and F-22) and I have misplaced the sleeve with the CD keys. Sure, Novalogic gave me fair warning about not losing the numbers, but I can't track down my old notepad that includes these digits.

I tempted to crater and get Delta Force from their website for 10 bucks, but I thought there was a way find the CD key number on a registry on the disc. I looked online to no avail. Can someone help?

(Take my word that this is legit; I'm just talking about searching on a physical, store-bought CD)

Thanks!

Forgot to mention that I had e-mailed Novalogic four times over two months to no responses at all. I went to their forums and you have to own a "newer" game to register to post comments (!). I love their games, but man, no love for catalog titles, I guess. Thanks again!

Discussing where or how to crack your game is against forum rules, but it is what I would recommend doing as well. Just be careful though because many crack sites are full of viruses and trojans and other nasty crap.

LOL. Thanks for the help. I had actually used a similar "file" to run my copy of Death Rally (which I bought at full price back in the day, but the disc won't read after installation on my current machine), but that wasn't a CD key situation. Oh well. That may explain why Novalogic never responded - they just figured "that dumbass ain't worth the time." Hehe. I will give it a whirl. Thanks again.
