If you have XP currently installed in your computer go to www.aida32.hu and
download and install AIDA32, the free Enterprise version. It will give you
your product key as well as much more info about your system. Remember, you
can install your copy of XP on only one computer at a time.

If the old installation still works, get the free Aida 32, enterprise
edition from
http://www.aida32.hu/aida-download.php?bit=32
which is an excellent general System Info tool, and its Software -
Licenses page will tell you the one used for Windows and ones for
several other items.

Note that if the machine came with XP installed, this will probably give
a key used in producing an original image, then cloned to all machines
they make. So it is not the one for a reinstall. But then the key will
be on a label on the case of the machine
