You could use this to find your XP key!

What is the manufacturer and model number? You can usually find the drivers online.
Ya rossco UDI would help in this case.Quote:

If you bought your pc retail, then your key should be located on the cd case or on the computer case it self. Just getting another copy of XP doesn't get rid of the need for a cd key. Even the "corporate versions" of XP require keys, just not activation. XP will probaly have all the drivers you need, but if it doesn't, you can just download the driver form the manufacter's website.
Thanks for the help i got the cd key now
