Any1 have XP home bootable disk?

I bought my laptop couple years back with pre-installed XP home. Its all fucked up and slow right now and I am sick of it, and I want to delete everything and reinstall XP and start fresh.
I have the product key on the back of the laptop. But I don't have the disk. I don't want to download torrents because I don't want to risk a backdoor or something.
Any1 have a OEM or known legit disk that can burn a copy for me please?
Its XP home, I am not sure if my product key will work with any other version.
Thanks

MS will send you a replacement for free, I did it for my vista machine when I wanted to clean it.

its probably like 40$ for a recovery disk. you just pop it in and it re installs the drivers and windows.
