Somebody wiped out windows xp on one of our computers. We
have an installation disc but we have no product code to
reinstall the os. How can we get a code to allow us to
install the os on this computer?

OEM versions of Windows XP are not supported by
Microsoft. Only "retail versions" of Windows XP are
supported by Microsoft. Microsoft cannot issue you
a replacement Product Key for an OEM version.... only
if it were a "retail version". Technical support for an
OEM version is the responsibility of the company that
sold you the OEM version of Windows XP.
