Installation of Office Xp for Small business on 2 owned computers

[Dezi]

I recently purchased new laptop and a Office Xp for small business program.
i installed on one laptop and the idea was to install on my work laptop so I
would have compatibility between the two. When installing and activating on
the second laptop, it would not let me activate. As I own this program is
there a way to install on my two laptops. I don't want to purchase a second
same program since I purchased and own this product. How can I install
office xp on my two laptops?

I'm not sure you can. What does the end-user license agreement for
Office XP Small Business say?

Office XP Small Business Edition is an OEM only product that cannot be
installed on any other system than the one on which it was initially
installed.

Read the End User License Agreement for details.
