Your issue is not that you can't find the image to download. your issue is assuming that you should be able to download it, and that it should be available for download.
Did Microsoft allow DigitalRiver.com to host the ISO files for XP, Vista, and Windows 7 ISOs? Vray for 3ds max 2013 32 bit free download with crack. Yes. Were they freely available for everyone to download? No. Was it was possible to get hold of a link and download one of these ISOs? Yes. Are all these links still available on the internet somewhere? No.

Microsoft did want to allow some people to be able to download an ISO of their version of Windows, but Microsoft also believes they should be the ones to decide who should, and should not be downloading their OS. I'm not talking about the broad sense of the decision. I mean Microsoft wanted to be very specific about who they gave permission to/the ability to.
Since you are talking about using the key on the COA sticker on the bottom of the laptop, you are talking about an OEM installation (as opposed to a Retail installation. it makes a difference). You won't be able to use a Windows XP Pro Retail ISO with that product key. So, although I won't violate any laws with links, I can tell you that you can take your chances on the bittorrent circuits, and search for a Windows XP Pro OEM ISO. You don't want one that is pre-activated, or comes with a crack or a hack. You just want an untouched ISO. You might get lucky.
You can also contact the manufacturer of the laptop (Via their Support web site) and request to purchase the recovery media for that model laptop. Purchase? REALLY? OMG, you just want the OS! Yes. I know this. And, you won't be spending $100 or $200 by going to the manufacturer. You'll spend between $10 and $40 for their recovery discs, which will include the original OS that was shipped with the laptop.

The OS that was replaced by Vista. that was replaced by Windows 7. that was replaced by Windows 8.
As a last resort, you could contact Microsoft directly. but the chances are great they are going to tell you that they cannot and/or will not assist you. and they will just attempt to sell you a copy of Windows 8.

Did XP Pro SP3 (or SP-any) come on that laptop? Sticker will say. If it does, it means OEM install. As such, the key you're seeing is a broad key that will not work for a re-install.
Options:
Most manufacturers have a reinstall partition, bootable by a key-sequence at the right time during boot. If that got blown-away (possibly by you prior to posting here),
Find an OEM image for your manufacturer. Again, if you're posting here, you're not Googling enough, or too antsy about getting tools where you need to.
Buy the image/CD from the manufacturer for that model. Often it's not more than $30. And the end-user will be happy having that physically in their storage.

-You can activate a corresponding retail version of Windows with your OEM activation key (it just has to be the corresponding version of Windows). However, it would be clever to visit the manufacturer's site and see if there are any recovery disk images available for your specific laptop model. If you decide to use a retail version of Windows, it is recommended that you download all the necessary drivers for your laptop and copy them on a USB stick or burn them on a CD so that you can get online etc. Sometimes people forget to download all the appropriate drivers for their Ethernet card, and they cannot get online after installing Windows.

-In that case, you should use the images that are hosted by Digital River (or purchase one of MS's license agreements and, thus, gain access to Microsoft's Volume Licensing Service Center where you'll probably get to download the image files that you are entitled to).

-Many OEM images are hosted by Digital River. You just have to have a lot of patience to find them for your specific laptop model.
