Contact HP.

Usuaully the product key is not needed with restoration processes - but
being an HP and likely an OEM - the product key should be on a sticker on
the machine.

Would appreciate keeping all responses in the newsgroups for everyone's
benefit.
 
You are probably correct. I purchased this from Tiger Direct. Shpould have
known better. Would that number be on the CPU? Thanks for your help

If by cpu you mean the computer tower, yes. If you purchased the computer
with the OS preinstalled then look for a label on the side. It will have
the product key. On a laptop it is usually on the bottom.

Confused Ragnald,
If that's an HP laptop, then turn it upside down. On the bottom, on a small
tag, in still smaller print is the number you are seeking.

The CPU is an electronic chip on the motherboard, inside the case. The
Windows Product Key is certainly not on it.

However, as Shenan said, quoted below, "the product key should be on a
sticker on
the machine." That's the case, not the CPU.
