The laptop is preloaded with Office 2007 what do I do
My aunt's new laptop is preloaded with Office 2007. Yup a trial work for a
while version. She's had it just a few days and now, of course, it is not working, the trial is over. Now, on her desktop she has Office XP Pro installed. AFAIK she may, according to the EULA, install and use Office on her laptop as well, so long as she will be the sole user; which she will be. OK , my questions: 1. Can she just enter the Product Key from the Office 2003? Or 2. Does she have to install Office 2003 on the laptop instead? And 3. If yes to # 2, should I uninstall Office 2007 first, reboot then install Office 2003? And 4. Are there any other issues I should be aware of? Thank you very much, Saucy Sponsored Links |

You have to uninstall any trial version, together with any activation
assistant, then clear temp files & reboot prior to installing any other version from cd OfficeXp is not fully compatible with Vista, primarily Outlook has problems "Saucy" <saucylemon@nospam.newsgroup> wrote in message news:%23MrFwYukJHA.1288@TK2MSFTNGP02.phx.gbl... > "Saucy" <saucylemon@nospam.newsgroup> wrote in message > news:ubHC8WukJHA.5112@TK2MSFTNGP03.phx.gbl... >> My aunt's new laptop is preloaded with Office 2007.
