determining licenses

[JimO]

I recently came to a new company that apparently didn't
have any organization when it came to software licensing.
No one is able to tell me if a particular pc has a
certain license. Is there a tool or a way for me to
determine if a license is OEM, Upgrade, Full, etc.?

You can display the Product Keys with Aida32, free, from www.aida32.hu. Then
if you have the original CDs and cases you should be able to match the Keys up
to determine what version goes with a particular PC.
