Corrupted MS Office 2003, but have another computer with MS office

[Daniel Andes]

I bought 2 HP computers with MS Office 2003 installed with no disks. One
computer's MS Office 2003 applications will not run. Is Office on the
computer that I can reinstall it or can I get it off the other computer?

I have my Key number.

Have you tried to get Office running on that computer?

 

[Bob I]

But did you actually get Office licenses and keys with the computers.
How did Office get on the PCs and who has the license. If OEM, contact
HP, if Retail, contact the seller,

I had Office 2003 on both computers. Computer #1 was corrupted. #2 works
great. I have the Keys. Can I get Office 2003 off computer #2 and put it on
#1?

Not without the disks. I would suggest calling HP and ask them about the
possibility of purchasing back up disks for Office if it's not located on a
hidden partition.

Nope, Office has to be installed and you didn't answer the question.

 

[Daniel Andes]

Yes. I purchased Office on the computers from Best Buy and they are HP brand.
I have the Licenses and the key numbers.

Can't I make a recovery disk off computer #2 and then install it back on
computer #1? If the software is not sacred, but the key numbers release the
data?

Daniel

 

[Bob I]

Yes, you could do that if the computers are virtually identical. Is
there any reason that you don't contact HP about this as they are
required to provide OEM support.

the following message appears, not sure what to do on this...
