windows xp activation via telephone

Hi,
I need to activate Windows xp over a telephone as I do not have internet access at present.
I would just like to know what information besides the product key they require.
I would like to have everything ready instead of looking for information when I ring them.
Thank you.

 

thank you NICK ADSL UK

 

Correct because Windows generates groups of 4 digit numbers, not the cd key, and displays these on the screen.

You input these numbers to a touch tone phone and and the msoft system reads you back some different ones to input to a box below on your pc screen. The system is very helpful and allows you to review your input. Also the phone number is free so you can take your time to get it right without worry.

 

thanks guys, I just activated windows today, very straight forward as you said.
cheers
