Barney's ESCD suggestion is a good one.

If that and Chem's clean the CD suggestion don't work, see if you can borrow someone else's CD. The CD key-code is not hard-coded in the CD...any Windows CD (that is the same version of Windoze as yours) will install the O/S using your CD key-code. IOW, the install program doesn't compare your key-code with something on the specific CD; it just uses a formula to determine whether the key-code you enter follows the formula rules.
