Default Product keys & CD's


Hello,
I have a weird question, hope you don't mind.
I have some windows xp cd's without product keys, genuine of course, and
then I have some product keys without the win xp software cd's from
computers that have dead harddrives and did not have a cd come with them
because the recovery was on the harddrive itself on a hidden partition,
can't get the software due to warranty expiration.
home with home, oem with oem, pro with pro, etc.
Sooo, I would like to know if it's possible to put the disks and keys
together, should I even try or is it a waste of time.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Well for those OEM Products keys that came installations on with
defunct systems, there'd be no point. After all, an OEM license expires
when the first computer on which it's installed expires.
