I ghosted a hardrive from a machine that had windows XP Sp2. I slaped the
ghosted hard drive to a new drive. DONE. The XP Ghost worked great.
However the Product Keys are still the same.

NOW, How do i change the product key of the ghosted machine to a new Product
Key. I have a product key ready and waiting. Any Ideas???

RUN SysPrep and it will remove all of the personalization (including
profiles) and will prompt you as though you were reinstalling it from
scratch - except all the software will be on the machine ready for you
to reenter the keys.

You should read-up on this method before you do this.
