I wish I could help you but I have no idea. The only thing I suggest you
should call MS. If you dial their number which I believe is 1-800-MICROSOFT,
double check on that, you will get a frightening message that you should pay
so many US dollars per minute to get help. Ignore it and get around the
message by choosing an option to talk to an operator. Ask them to direct you
to a technician.
I am an MSDN Pro subscriber which costs me exactly $900 a year but I get
help and software from them worth roughly 2 orders of magnitude that much,
they are so generous. But is is also my impression that when I call them
with a problem and mention that I am a subscriber they essentially ignore it
because I always call them with problems which are not related to MSDN at
all. I can get all the help along the MSDN lines on their websites.
I called them recently on an issue of a screwed up produce key for an OEM XP
and it worked just fine, although I again brandished my MSDN credentials
which they ignored. Before that there was another problem, hotmail related,
which a guys fixed for me, I talked to him for almost 30 min, he was very
generous. It was on Dec 31. It was not MSDN related at all.
Go ahead, it is doable.
