Error During Startup

[Susanne]

Hello,

I am trying to start-up MS Word (Office XP Small
Business). When I start word, the activation wizard
appears and I cannot get past it. I bought a PC from Dell
almost 2 years ago and the software came with it.

1) Why do I have to activate it after that long a period?
2) How do I activate it?
3) What codes/product IDs do I need to activate it.

Any help is much appreciated,

Susanne
