How do you lose a bright Orange box?

Call Support and say you moved or something and it was lost. and see what they can do.

If you remember, or can get the steam username and password that you installed under, you've got a good shot. Reinstall and login to steam.

If you have a registry from a system that you installed the games on, you have a poor shot.

Otherwise, you're reduced to begging Valve for a solution. They are most influenced by pictures of what you've got, and documentation of your purchase.

They are unusually overloaded right now, because of some "interesting" implementations of their region lock policy, so I would'nt expect too much, and certainly not very fast.

In any case, you're best bet is to ask Valve directly.

Did you have them installed before you lost the case (and re-installed you OS)?

Chances are the you don't need to re-enter the codes, you just need to login to your steam account.

I tryed to get the number for stream but they don't tell. I'd just buy a new copy, then flip on vault.

You no longer the box or code, just install Steam and then log in with your account name and password. All the games you have through Steam will be there and available to be downloaded.

I quite like that system, until they start losing that information. Let's hope that never happens... :)
