KT2 BIOS version

[Guest]

I have kind of an odd request. My KT2 died, taking with it an iTunes
authorization. I've read that the authorization is based on four things:

serial number of the C: drive
Windows product ID
CPU name string
BIOS version

I have the first three. It's the BIOS version I'm not so sure about.
My plan is to set these values temporarily, so that I can deauthorize
the computer.

Would someone with a KT2 Combo-L kindly send me the value of the
following Registry entry:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System]
"SystemBiosVersion"=hex(7):

Ideally, export it from regedit, because there may be trailing NULs.
