recovering lost XP product Key

I'm sure many of you who use XP as an operating system have at some point for whatever reason need to reinstalling the OS.

Chances are some of you might have already lost the product key, fret not, this link will teach you how to extract you CD key from the file ntuser.dat. This seems like a more secure way of making sure you keep your CD key to yourself.

Those step might be a little confusing for you folks that have little idea about registry editing.

let me know if you need help.

Management console

I took over a maintaince contract from some vendor and realize that the management console exe is missing from the SBS 2003, i've tried many solution, including restalling using the ms server 2003 CD or repairing but never managed to get it back.

could someone provide me a solution? it's really getting on my nerve.....
There are still some issue on exchange server and outlook client 2003 that seems a bit strange but then again, not everyone is having the same problem as i do....

MiMi

recently, the cat that have been living in the coffeeshop(longer then i have been there, prolly 7 years) , have pass away. It was kinda sad for me, for i have feed her for the past 3 years.

She had a tumor in her throat area, vet said it was not possible to remove it without cutting her blood vein near her neck and since she was having alot of difficulty breathing, we make the sad decision to let her go. I guess we finally released her to a better afterlife ... see ya mimi

busy

been busy with CNY order, so i'm not so free to updated the blog, but who's reading anyway?

hehe, be back soon.

chicken rice

contrary to popular belief , the cooking of chicken rice doesn't necessarily include chicken lard, nor does it need chicken stock to make the rice taste good.

i come across alot of magazine that said that chicken rice is fatty because of the lard and soup used to cook the rice, but i like to show some of those magazine that you do not require lard or chicken stock to cook a nice fluffy chicken rice. If you do not believe it can be done, you can always contact me for a demo. I will proof that theory to you =o)

i've found a name for my son, my son that is due in april, hehe, his name is Alistair, nice right? i thought so !
