Maybe http://www.opera.com/support/new2opera/download/

Are you having a particular problem with installing Opera or do you
simply not have the faintest idea how to begin?

I've downloaded 7.54 in the past few days. I downloaded 7.? in
May, '04 and received a code, but I never installed it at that time.
I think that I paid some sort of license fee then.
When I tried to install 7.54 now, I found no way to insert the
code. Do I need to pay $39 now (for a no-ad version)?

B T W I am using windows XP. This a relatively new installation.
I do not have any portions of previous versions of opera on my
machine. Are there any serious problems about using opera7.54
under XP?

Thank you to both Steve and Ken; I know of two possible
e-addresses for myself. I have a print-out of the registration
code that I received on 28th May, 2004, for Opera 7 for
Windows. That code was sent to an old, now discarded address.
My current one is hollandb1@verizon.net.
I have inserted first one address, and the registration code,
and then the second address and the registration code, and
both trials result in an 'error notice' . (I did make use
of the 'change of address' form, and was supposed to get
a reply in my email, and it is over 24 hours since and have
not heard.) (I did use cut and paste to insert the code. )
It should be so straight forward, and I am getting quite
frustrated by this ridiculous problem.
Any ideas? T I A Bert

You sure you bought a license for the right platform? If it is a Windows
license, it should start with "w-". Copy and past from the mail is indeed
the savest way (make sure there are no trailing spaces). I wonder how you
do that from a print-out though? For 'Name', you can enter anything,
'Organization' can be left blank.
