install office 2007 (retail copy) on a netbook
I already own office 2007 Retail copy. I have had it installed on my gateway
laptop for a few years now. I just purchased a samsung netbook with no CD drive. How can I install it on my netbook. I see no need to pay for the preinstalled version on the netbook, when I already own it. Can I download it from the internet to my netbook or is there some other way to install it without having to pay for another copy of it. Thanks |

install office 2007 (retail copy) on a netbook
You may find that buying an external drive is a good idea.
Try copying the disc to a USB flash drive and install from that. -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] Tech Editor for "Microsoft Publisher 2007 For Dummies" "smitty" wrote in message ...

Thanks The other methods (copy onto a usb device on another computer, network the computer across the network or purchase an external DVD player) also work but you may be able to download your version from http://www.microsoft.com/office/downloads/ if it is, as you say, a retail full version install and it matches one of the three versions on this site. Remember it is a large download and you will need broadband connection to satisfactorily download in a reasonable amount of time. |
