well...most computers have that same label posted on the shell of the unit. Either on the side..or the back. Try looking there. Other than that. Your just pretty much out of luck unless you get someone else's number.

Insert the CD, and go to Open the CD instead of auto-play it. You should search the CD, sometimes they will have a file in them that has the key for when this type of stuff happens. Otherwise, call Microsoft and ask them (but I warn you, it cost money before they even solve the problem).

Had not you formatted your computer you could have used this handy little program to find your installer key http://www.magicaljellybean.com/keyfinder.shtml
Now that you've formatted your computer you're in trouble. There are many free keys on the net but they're illegal. Sorry, I'd help if I could.

This is why I take a black magic marker and copy the instal numbers on every one of my cds

By chance and this is a long shot.
Look on your computer case and see if there is a Microsoft OEM sticker that has a key on it.
If not, this computer died on me and you can have it Did you get it ?????? Quickly.......and REALLY!
