I dont have the sticker telling me the CD of my operating system and microsoft is asking me to validate the CD key. Is there a way to find out?

Yes there is a way. The key is stored in the registry. But if you would like something simple that will not take much time. Try this.

Is your XP functioning? If so there is a program floating on the 'Net that retrieves the key from within the installation.
