Can you re-activate Office 2007 licence after reformatting hard dr

[Frank Barrena]

I just installed and activated Office 2007 Enterprise on my notebook. Before
that, I tried to upgrade from Windows XP to Windows Vista but something went
wrong and Vista is half-installed but does not work. XP is working.

I want to install Windows Vista by reformatting the hard disk in order to
avoid installation problems, and then reinstall Office 2007.

My concern is if I will have trouble when activating the Office 2007
licence, since it is already activated.

Any advice will be welcome.

You may have to use the telephone activation method and explain the
circumstances.

I installed Office 2007 Student edition, then about a year later upgraded to
Office 2007 Pro. I am trying to install a PDF conversion file, Microsoft
regognizes the Office pro version but will not allow me to install because it
can't validate the older Office 2007 student version. I have the original
disk and product keys.

Any help??
