Did you give your cd key out on the internet, or maybe a friend stole a glance of it?

You have 3 options here:
Tell your friend to disable your CD code, and buy his own CD
Call microsoft, see what they can do in this situation
Buy a new CD for halo, which would come with a new CD
Those are your only 3 legal options (that I can think of)

They may get mad and tell you they cant help you since you gave out your key so tell them you left your box at a friends and he registered his ce with it also or some bs excuse like that. Not just "Well my friend didnt have halo PC or a key so i thought i would illegally give him mine"

u don't have to tell them that. just ask for a new key, they tell u the price and then buy it

Ya, you wouldn't have to tell them anything, I think they sell the keys commercially.
