installing office xp pro on a new computer

I am having troubles installing office xp on my new computer. it is difficult
because i lost the cd's i had, and i am trying to copy everything from my old
laptop to my new one. I cannot find the setup.exe files at all, so if anyone
can help me as to how/where i can find those files, or what i can do to have
an easy installation, please let me know.
you can reply on here, or e-mail me at
thanks much

You cannot install Office XP by copying it from another computer.
You need to install from the original Office XP CD, and you
will need the 25-digit product key that came with the CD. See

broken, or missing Microsoft software or hardware".
