The numbers are on the XP cd in a file. 1/3 of highway deaths are caused by drunks. The rest are by people who can't drive any better than a drunk.

"The numbers are on the XP cd in a file" While there is a file on the XP disc that contains a product key, it's a generic key. You can use it to perform the install but it will NOT activate. Look in the i386 folder, the file is UNATTEND.txt.

ViewKeyXP is used view the product key on a system that already has XP installed on it. We're not supposed to discuss such things but what's needed is a KeyGen program. After XP is installed with either the generic key from the UNATTEND.text file or any other key that won't activate, the keygen program will scan the system & create a new key (or keys). The longer you let it run, the more keys it will produce. Once you have the new key, all you need to do is change the key, then activate. If you do run such a program, make sure to unplug from the internet 1st. Click Here! Step by Step Guide to Changing the Windows XP Product Key

Oh snap. 1/3 of highway deaths are caused by drunks. The rest are by people who can't drive any better than a drunk.

I believe the freeware application the Bel-Arc Advisor will list you product key once its installed and you run it ! I do not have a link for you however a Google or Bing search will bring a link to download this very informative app. It shows all of your installed software and hardware plus Windows Updates and verifies that they are installed properly ! Good Luck ,Nick R
