You can grab a copy of the Original Microsoft operating system?

HI: My Dell Dimension 3000 had Windows XP Home on my hard drive and it destroys itself.  I bought a new hard drive and he would reinstall from the restore disc.  Unfortunately as it was for many years the restoration dischas moved.  I still have the COA on the side of the machine.  I was wondering if there was a way to get a copy of the Microsoft operating system.  Dell is not any help at all, and "You can call me Bob," says hes sorry I have problems, but this computer is no longer supported.  If I was filthy rich instead of being on disability, I got a new computer.  Thanks for any help.
