Product Key

I just bought a new laptop recently, and it came with the microsoft office
program on it. It continually asked me to type in my product key, so I
did...25 times. And everytime it would say that my product key was invalid. I
need this program for school but it won't let me use it until I type in a
product key. Help?

Your product key is likely for your Operating System. Check with the OEM for
the product key for Office. You probably bought a laptop with a trial
version of Office.

"In solving a problem of this sort, the grand thing is to be able to reason
backwards. That is a very useful accomplishment, and a
very easy one, but people do not practise it much. In the every-day affairs
of life it is more useful to reason forwards, and so
the other comes to be neglected. There are fifty who can reason
synthetically for one who can reason analytically." - Sherlock

You are typing in the key as found on the bottom of your laptop? That's the
WINDOWS key not the OFFICE key. Refer to the documentation that came with
your new laptop....

Help! I cant seem to locate the product key. I typed in the product key
located on the side of my desktop computer. It still says invalid. I also
need this for school.

Any key that is fixed to your computer is the WINDOWS key....
