Consider this gist to be deprecated. It's full of information that may or may not be correct, given recent findings. Consider the in-development PIDDatabase, and UMSKT, instead: https://umskt.github.io/PIDDatabase-viewer https://github.com/UMSKT/UMSKT
These keys have been tested to work. These are a combination of keys from Chinese websites, trial keys inside ISO's, auto-activate keys in OEM ISO's, and directly from Microsoft's website, all aggregated for your convenience.
In order to use these keys, you need the right edition of Windows XP/2003. Not just Home/Pro/Enteprise/etc, whether it's a Retail, OEM or Volume version. There's a clear cut way to check this.
If you see this, you have a Retail copy.
If you see this, you have an OEM copy.
If you see this, you have a Volume copy.
You can tell the edition usually by the contents of the End User License Agreement.
If your version of Windows doesn't need activation, great! You can move on. If it does, you can use UMSKT to generate installation ID's.

Found by Lost-Entrepreneur439, thank you! |
So far, only 68.4% of all types of keys have been (theoretically) found.
If you see something missing or broken, report it! If you have something that isn't on this list, put it in the comments, i'll put it on here and give you credit (if you want credit)! If you see something that doesn't exist, say so in the comments so I can remove it.
@malvarenga123 I suggest using the new (in-development) PIDDatabase: https://umskt.github.io/PIDDatabase-viewer
