The copy was purchased from a retail store. I'm the only one that ever used it and it's only installed on one machine. =)

Probably the best way to do this is use a program that retrieves the key.
The product key used to install Windows XP is still present on the machine in some form but is not readable, to view it you need a tool such as Magical Jelly Beans: http://www.magicaljellybean.com/

Call Microsoft Customers Service in the country you're located. They should be able to help you.
Good Luck
