Are you asking about the volume serial number of the disk? Im not sure what you mean by Serial Number.

i think hes after the actuall OSs serial number ( the key ) and i dont think it can be done , but i guess it may depend on the OS :-\

The number that is in registry of windows.
I want know that data because i should create an application and for security i need that number and others data for example number pc etc

You shouldnt be using an OS "serial number" for security. OS changes are made all the time, and that would invalidate your security and aggravate your user. Period. Instead, use hardware-based identifiers, such as a network cards MAC address and/or a hard drives serial number.
