How do I activate office after reaching the limit?

V

Visty

I have Office 2003 Basic. I installed it on one computer, the computer
crashed after about a year, I reinstalled Windows & Office. The computer
crashed again two weeks later. I installed a new motherboard, and now am
trying to activate Office (for about the 3rd time). If I choose to activate
by internet it says that I've reached the activation limit - If I go back and
choose to activate by telephone the box goes away and gives me no further
information (LIKE A REALLY BADLY NEEDED PH. #!).
Can anyone please help me, or at least give me the activation Ph. # so I can
talk to someone?
Thank You.

Actually, the OP will probably have to contact the computer manufacturer
since she replaced the motherboard and Office Basic is an OEM only edition.
