You need a XP Pro key for XP Pro, or a XP Home key for XP Home.

I think if you look on the CD for winnt.sif it has the product key in it.

You have a key for Home though, which means you'll need a Home ISO.

Then ideally you need an OEM version if this is an OEM sticker which it probably is.

I had this exact problem - http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=371888

Get a Home ISO then when it comes to activation phone them up and tell them you've only installed it on one computer and whatever they ask that relates to piracy. They're just checking that you're not activating a number of times with different computers.
