reactivation of Office XP without CD

[debliss4]

My wife reorganized my office and I can't find my original retail Office XP
Pro CD's. I have replaced some components in my computer. WordXP says that
it has detected a significant change in the computer and wants me to
reactivate using the CD's that I can't find. Is there any otherway to
reactivate.

No, you need the CDs. Did Office come with your computer or did you buy it
separately?

I bought Office XP after I got my computer.

You should still be able to buy a replacement CD from Microsoft. I'm not
100% positive since there's a new version of Office out. It's just a phone
call to be sure tho.
