I used to mine bitcoins years ago and I still have the hard drive. I just don't know where to find the wallet or the key or any of it.

Is there any way for me to do that?

Have you tried searching for a file named wallet.dat on the hard drive? It should be in <drive letter>\Documents and Settings\<user name>\Application data\Bitcoin or <drive letter>\Users\<user name>\Appdata\Roaming\Bitcoin – Nick ODell Jul 6 '17 at 18:29
