Finding Your Orginal CD Key

 
To get the CD key, right-click My Computer and choose Properties. When the System Properties dialog box opens,  click the General tab. You'll find the CD Key under Registered User. The CD key is the middle 10 digits. The entire number format is: 

xxxxx-012-3456789-xxxxx

In this example, the CD key is 013-3674353.   If you re-install Windows over an existing installation it you will need to enter the key used on the orginal installation.
