Windows 10: Installing windows X on laptop that originally came with windows 8

Hi,

I have a dell xps L322X laptop which came with windows 8. The laptop is too slow now even with SSD installed. Below the laptop is a metal flap saying windows 8 but with no windows key like older laptops. It has a serial number of the hardware. The laptop is now windows x home which was given for free by Microsoft few years back. Windows x was never clean installed on it, just upgraded, as given by Microsoft. How do I now clean install the laptop? It never came with a window dvd, and no conventional 16 windows key.

:)
