I have XP on my laptop and want to install it on my desktop. I have the "temporary version" of it currently on the desktop.

My question is I need the product ID key and can't find the manual. Is there anyway to get the key from the version installed on my laptop?

I realize it's probably not legal but I don't really care much.

Dola-

I am in no way asking someone for an ID key.

There's nothing illegal about find your own product key. As long as you purchased the software, you are fine. However, I am just going by the assumption that you are not going to have 2 operating systems running only one version of Windows XP since you did mention 'temporarily'.

Anyway, here are a couple of programs you can use:

Magicaljellybean works good as well.
