I currently subscribe to Microsoft Reseller program in which gives me
the ability to purchase the action pack, well I have mixed up the cd
keys for each of the products and I am stuck unable to determine what
key is for what. Does anyone know of a MS site i can use to determine
what key is for what OS or application?

If the products are installed on your PC see below.

Three utilities which will display your product keys:
http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml
and: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/product_cd_key_viewer.html
and RockXP: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4138.html which has additional
features

Hi JS,

I am trying to restore a HDD for a friend. It won't boot, so I don't think I
can use any of the tools you listed below to determine the XP OS Key which
I'll need to do the repair.
Is there any way I can find the XP OS Key on a HDD that is a slave?

Unfortunately, no, not that I know of. Those utilities only work for an
installation that is running.

I just tried ProduKey which had a command-line option;

C:\ProduKey.exe /windir "D:\Windows"

It will "load product key information from another operating system on the
same computer".
Unfortunately as you say, it needs to be running, not just a slave.
