Just wondering if CD hashes stay the same through reinstalls.
I want to reinstall Halo on a new PC. Just wondering if my CD hash will remain the same.
I play on servers with ranking systems or pirate protection systems. So just need to make sure I won't lose my rank or worse, on servers with pirate protection systems; be banned.
I would be changing operating system by the way, either to a different version of XP or to Ubuntu.

as long as you keep using the same cd key, the hash will remain the same (own experience)

Hash is only related to your Halo product key, OS or re-install do not affect your hash. So yes, it's consistent. Edited by Sean Aero on Aug 29, 2012 at 05:34 AM

Thanks Sean Aero. Was hoping for an answer from you since you run HaloRank.
So I can be confident that my rank will remain the same on all servers + I won't be registered as a pirate?
