Hi Laura,
This group is for setup of Microsoft Access, not Windows.
If the key code is a Microsoft Windows key code you might want to try
calling Microsoft directly. If that does not work, you may be stuck buying a
new copy; possibly an Upgrade version for around $100 would work, unless it
requires access to the original disks. And you can try posting in the
....windowsxp.setup_deployment group.
