Concerned about time between exams

Hello, I am trying to get my MCSA at present (exam 70-290 next week). Previously I took and passed the 70-270 XP exam about 2 years ago and am concerned that it has since become invalid. Can anyone else confirm this? Also, as I lost my original MCP ID years ago it is not officially recorded anymore...all I have to prove I passed it is the printout from the passing centre. Help!

You can contact MS Learning to get your ID. The exams do not expire, but they will eventually become retired. This has not happened for the XP/2003 track yet, and it probably won't for at least 2-3 years. -

Thanks, what do they require from the printout to issue a new ID?

You won't get a new one; they'll look up the one you already have after getting a little personal information from you.

Send a quick mail to mcphelp@microsoft.com.
Give them as much info as possible.
e.g Name, e mail, contact tel number, test centre where you took exams, exam codes you believe to be on your transcript.
Don't expect a swift reply though, normally automated response within 24 hours, something a bit more substantial a week or 2 later. Best to give them a quick call.
