Default my product key will not work (I used a maganify glass to make

Hello, my name is Sasha, I know where the product key is located, actually
it says "Product Key" and has numbers and letters like YX45G-HY8K0-, etc..
there are 25 letters that are on an orange sticker. I typed already the
product key and it says "The key is incorrect. Verify that you have the
correct key, and then retype it".

I'm typing the correct product key... what should I do?

I do have a product key and the disk for Office 2003 Student teacher edition.
My computer died and I rebooted it all and I was trying to reinstall Office
but it will not let me. I know there are 3 EULA available and I have it
loaded on two other computers in my house. Since I had to reboot does that
mean that my computer is treated as a new computer. What should I do? I
would appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks

If this product key is on a sticker attached to your computer, that is the
WINDOWS product key, not Office.

This is the first time I've read that the Product Key on the bottom of my HP
Netbook is for Windows and not Office!!!! Now where do I find the Office
Product Key. Office Home & Student 2007 was installed by HP when I bought it.

The product key might be on a sticker on your Works CD. I've heard from
others that that was where their trial key was located.

It came with my computer already installed, but DIDN't give me a product
key
so I tried the one on the back of my pc, that didn't work either. I
removed
that and downloaded it from the web site and I still got a bad key from
the
web site. Like I told the others, I'm just not going to buy or mess with
something I can't use. Oh and sorry, to answer your question I don't have
a
CD, looks like I'm not gonna get one either. lol

Unless you paid extra for Office H&S its a Trial version, which after expiry
of the trial you have to uninstall, then buy the version of Office you
require.
