I have missed placed/lost my CD Key (10-Digit Registration
Code) for Windows XP. Where/How can I find it or get it to
reinstall XP? Is this the right forum. Thank for your
help. Bill
The installation key for Windows XP is *not* 10 digits - it's a 25-character
alphanumeric key. If Windows was preinstalled on your computer when you
purchased it then the installation key will be on a sticker affixed
somewhere to the outside of the system. If you cannot locate it then you
must contact your system vendor - Microsoft do not, will not and cannot
assist with OEM installations.

One other minor point - it isn't necessary to register XP, only to activate.
