My desktop is dying a very fast death, and I want to salvage what I can from it. Hardware isn't an issue, but I want to recover the product keys, especially the Window XP one before I wipe the drive and put it to good use.
Normally I just run
Belarc Advisor, and it spits out the product keys used to install all the software on the computer, but since I have plugged the drive into my external , Belarc doesn't provide the keys for that drive.
Any thoughts as to how I can find the key out? I have long since lost the CD and product key and this is my only (non MSDNAA) copy of XP so I would hate to lose it over something so stupid as this.
Edit: Just realized I didn't mention it but the drive is not bootable, either on the desktop or on my laptop.
