The original poster will not be able to get a replacement CD/Product key from
Microsoft. They stated that the product key was a "label" style one.
Therefore, this would be an OEM version of XP and they must contact where they
purchased it from. Microsoft does/will not support OEM software directly.

If this is an OEM disk look on the computer case as OEMs are supposed to
stick the label on the computer.
