Windows XP key code

Question

I have been trying to find the proper key code for Windows Xp.  The code on the computer doesn't work and a search on Belarc Advisor doesn't work.  Dell tells me to contact Microsoft and Microsoft tells me to contact Dell.  Niether are willing to help me. Anyone got a suggestion other than buying a new copy of XP?

If your Dell came with XP, it is on a sticker on the side of the tower, bottom of a laptop

The 25 alphanumeric code on the sticker on the computer itself will work if you bought the computer new with XP installed. Make sure you use a magnifier to check for confusion between the number 8 and the letter B, zeros and letter O, ones and L, etc. If you bought used, you'll probably need to buy a new disk unless the original xp disk was included.
