New PC, Retail Office 2007, Incorrect Product Key
Just got a new Windows 7 PC.
Installed my Office 2007 (Home and Student) suite onto the PC. During installation, Windows "accepted" the Product key. After installation, I started Word so that I could "activate" my Office 2007. When I enter my product key during the activation process, Windows tells me I have entered an incorrect key. The only explanation I can think of is that apparently the PC came with a free trial of Office 2007 (I discovered this after I tried to activate my Office 2007), and maybe somehow Windows is confused about which product key it should be accepting. I purchased Outlook 2007 separately, and I am having the same problem with it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike |
