You will have to call the Microsoft Product Activation Center at 888-725-1047.
You will then be asked if you have the activation wizard up on your screen - respond with "YES". Finally, you will be transferred to an activation specialist. You will have to tell them what happened to you original product key (lost it, accidentally destroyed etc.) and you will have to tell them why you need the key. (Hard drive crash or whatever). They will NOT give you a replacement key if you tell them that you need it for a second computer - your are only licensed to use the key on one computer at a time! he may ask you for numbers printed on the CD . He will then tell you what you have to do to order a replacement product key.

You need to reinstall all the mother board drivers including the sound drivers.Ifd you dont have the disc then look for your motherboard make and model and go to the manufactures websiter and down load the aproproiate driver .
Only Microsoft can tell you that. Normally there is a sticker on the computer that has the product key on it if it was installed by the computer manufacturer. If you have a product key with the Microsoft watermark on it then it is genuine most likely. The MS Silverlight software used for Microsoft update is designed to identify legitimate copies and reduce pirating. Essentially, if there is more than one copy of a Microsoft product using the same key the system is supposed to flag it and prevent updates. I doubt this really works but that was the thought. Contact Microsoft to verify your software.
Open the file and follow the instructions. Watch out because the free version wants to install Bing on the host computer and that may not be what you are looking for.

hope this key works for you

not make your windlows genuine and you will not be able to pass
microsoft authentication and will be devoided from any updates for windows
There are a lot of things you can do to speed up windows. Upgrade RAM, remove unused programs and defragement. The best option in my opinion and what I do regularly is to either ghost your hard drive when you first install windows and the bare needed programs, or if you don't already have a ghost of the hard drive to restore too. Reformat and reinstall windows after backing up any needed data. Windows inherently gets slower over time and the only sure way to get it running as quick as it should is to reformat and reinstall it altogether. Thank you, Lee
IF YOU WOULD LIKE A BLACKMARKET KEY GOOD LUCK, TRY THIS WAY.

The integrated video card means your video card is on the mainboard. If your Graphic Card is faulty you need to replace the mainboard which will be costly! The Hard Drive(HDD) is the device where your Operating System(OS) & data are stored. Replacing the HDD will not fix the the problem.
Ross Smith has one of best methods available to create your self a slipstreamed Windows XP with SP3 installed and all the critical hotfixes, the only problem is that he stopped developing it in April 2009 so the list is about 40 hotfixes short, network installation SP3 version HERE
I also like using RVM Integrator v1.6.7 OR Autostreamer v1.0.30 to slipstream SP3 first to a folder containing the Windows XP SP2 I386 files this will give you a installation folder with all the SP3 files integrated.
Paul Thurrott's WinSupersite gives you a manual method if you prefer tutorial with screendumps HERE also how to exrtract the microsoft image file so that you can create your own bootable CD
Then download the Hotfixes EF2 list for use with using IDM from my public skydrive HERE is my exported list OR if you prefer use Windows Update Downloader and download one of the update lists, you must double click the ULZ file to install it into the interface, update lists HERE
There are other alternatives like hfslip (similiar to smithi's script) and nLite + WinUpdateDownloader I have had limited success with both of them however there are alot of Program Addons available for nLite like WMP11 and IE8 and a whole list from MSFN available HERE
