I have a harddrive that has the contents of a crashed version of Windows
XP.
Is there any way to pull up the registry or file from that harddrive and
retrieve the Win XP type (like Pro, Corp, Media Center, Home, etc.) as
well
as the product key for that Windows installation ?
The computer that the harddrive was in crashed and wouldn't boot or
even post.

Thanks...

See my response to your OTHER post.

Please try to cross-post if you feel you need to in the future.
Multi-posting makes it harder for you to get all the answers at once and
makes it difficult for those answering to see what others have told you
elsewhere and build on it/discuss it.
