How do I request a product key, the maintence staff here
cleaned up and the sticker went out with the trash.

Thanks,
Ron

If XP is installed, go to www.aida32.hu and download the free AIDA32
Enterprise edition. It will give you your product key plus much more info.

Won't give you the original product "key", It will return the encrypted
version that is stored on your machine.

AIDA does give you the correct product key. My first post is correct. Open
AIDA, click on Operating system, AIDA gives both the Product ID and Product
Key.

Dude, what are you on?? - this software displays the exact "Product Key" of
all Microsoft Products installed - in plain text.

Aida32 will decrypt the stored key and give the correct one as used to
install.

Note that in the case of an OEM one, installed by the maker, this will
be the one used for the bulk 'image' and is not right for a reinstall,
but in that case the key will be on a label stuck to the machine
