XP Re-install

[Bill]

I needed to do a non-destructive re-install of XP Home.
It requires my liscense which I no longer have. I
registered the product when I installed it. Can I recover
the liscense from Microsoft?

If XP's not still running then see this link if it's a retail version:

If it's an OEM copy you'll need to contact the OEM or computer vendor
from which it came.
