Once I get the CD Key from using this magic jellybean finder. Can I
use that serial # and enter it without having to re install windows
xp? If so, how?
 
No you need to buy your own OS and it should come with its own serial
number. You can't copy somebody's serial number and use it for your own
system. It won't work and most likely you may be arrested for
pirating. You always need to activate all MS products.

Sorry, I'm having a hard time understanding your question. If you got the
key from Magic Jellybean Finder, it would be the key that was installed and
Windows already has it. What would be the point of entering it again?

Perhaps you thought you could use Magic Jellybean Finder to get the key from
the CD. No, that's not the case for the simple reason that the key is not on
the CD.

Hello

It will still be the same pirated key that you have installed your XP with. To get a legal key you will need to purchase a legal version of XP
