I've downloaded the trial CD of System Recovery but it's asking for a license key to backup/recover machines - how do I go about getting one?
Many thanks.

If you attempt to perform a backup from the recovery disk, or a restore from the recovery disk to dissimilar hardware, you will need a license key. These operations cannot be performed in 'trial' mode. The only way around this is to contact the Symantec sales team and obtain an NFR license key from a Symantec sales rep, or to purchase the product.

If you choose to delay installation of the license key, all features in Symantec System Recovery remain enabled during the 60-day trial period.

I'm trying to use the recovery CD which won't proceed with a backup or recovery without a license key - is there a trial one I can use?
