You could just find a torrent at some sites. Since you've already registered your expansions, you won't need another registration code.

True but that take time. The installing of the registry key will be much faster though

Check OP and post 5.

What OS are you running, Hach? If you want I can export my registry and send it your way via e-mail, if the above link doesn't work out for you.

It should only take a few tweaks of my base registry to get it working for just about any Windows-based system.

Sometimes EB Games and other game stores will still have some dusty FFXI trial disks available for $2-3, behind the counter. There's no WoTG expansion on it of course, but otherwise it makes a great backup disk.
