Possibilities of getting keys from CD

[Guest]

I have a windowsxp professional cd.. and unfortunately I lost my keys. I just
have a Microsoft cd.

Is there any way from where I can get the key from that cd.

Do you still have a computer you installed that CD on, with Windows ON it?
If so, there is some hope of doing it yourself. The CD is in no way tied to
the key, so has no reference of the key on the disc. If you don't still have
a Windows installation, you'll need to call Microsoft support. If you do
still have an install, google "keyfinder", and write down the result it
finds.

The Product Key for Windows XP is not stored in the
Windows XP CD itself. Sorry for your loss.
