Move Office 2007 to New PC

E

Elz

Hello.

I bought a new PC. I want to uninstall my Office Ultimate 2007 from my old
PC, and install it on my new PC. Since this was a download, I do not have the
disc, but I do still have the product key. When I first purchased this, the
email said I should back up the software in case I need it after a hard disc
crash, but it didn's specify how to do this. I'm guessing if I had it backed
up, I could just install it on the new PC. Any ideas how I can do this? I'd
hate to have to purchase this all over again, just because I got a new PC.

By the way, my new PC came with a trial version of Office. I thought I'd try
to register my product key with it, but no go...

Thanks for any help/suggestions.

When you origonally purchased you were given the option to pay extra for the
disk. The downloaded installation file would have been saved to a folder on
your drive (downloads) you simply needed to copy this to external media, as
you do with any backup process.
So unless you can prove purchase of the origonal you have made an expensive
mistake (You cannot convert the trial with your key)

Next time go to Amazon or similar, you get the disk & its cheaper
