If that's all the information you can provide,
the answer is no.

If you have a copies of Windows and Office running on several computers you
can determine which pk is in use on each computer by downloading and running
KeyFinder from http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml. If you have
a copy of Windows preinstalled on a computer the pk will be on a sticker on
the case (desktop) or bottom (laptop).

Please be more specific in the future. There are many products with product
keys.

It belongs to the product contained inside the CD box.

Please be more specific in the future. There are many products with product
keys.

And Belarc Advisor will show most of those that are MS products...
including the XP key.

Not necessarily. The cds are pretty generic. It does not tell him which
computer on which he used a specific product key. For that he needs to
check the computer, not the box.

If I have three copies of XP Home retail there is no way that looking in the
boxes can tell me which of my three computers uses which product keys. Not
only that, I may have used the same cd to do all three installations.

In fact, all seven of my copies of Vista were installed with the same dvd
and more than a dozen copies of XP Pro x86 were installed with the same cd.
I run KeyFinder when I need to know a specific pk and have a file with the
pks associated with the physical and virtual computers they go with.

Read the label on the front of the box?
