if you have it running than you can use this to find it:

Another way would be to search your hard drive and install disks for a file called WINNT.SIF or UNATTEND.TXT
if you find one, look for this section:
[UserData]
FullName="My Full Name"
OrgName=My Company Name
ComputerName=*
ProductID="XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX"

Try Belarc Advisor. I know it will retrieve the key of Windows XP, although I'm not sure about Vista. Magical Jellybean is another possibility. If this doesn't work, call Microsoft and tell them you lost the key. If you have a legal copy of the software they will be able to generate a new key for you, although you may have to pay a nominal fee.

You can call the microsoft customer service number, and they will give you a new cd-key. They will ask you to describe everything on the disc, so you need to have the original disc. Or you might need to mail in the disc and they will send you a new one with a new key.

It's a fake copy. You can try calling microsoft, but not even they will believe you. I mean seriously, who loses a key to a $150 + object. Come on get real.
