HDD died, any way I can get my key

[drjekel_mrhyde]

This is a HP PC. I hear the key is stored in BIOS. If I just somehow get a OEM iso of 8 will my key in BIOS activate Windows 8?

When you get a new hard disc and install Windows, it should activate properly. If it doesn't, Microsoft will activate it manually, you will just have the nuisance of a phone call to get it activated.
