How do the product keys on the side or bottom of your computer work if you don't have an XP disk? Is there a way to boot XP and use the product key that came with the system even if you don't the disk?

A recovery disk or a partition on the HD to do a recovery from.

If you don't have it you might go to the maufacturer and request one from them. Dell and HP usually have the files packed onto a recovery disk that you can boot from.

Best of luck.
