Transfer Office 2007 License from Dying Computer to New One

S

I have Office 2007 loaded onto an old computer. Now I need Office on a new
computer.

The software was loaded from a disc provided by my company through a deal
with Microsoft. Any chance there is a process that I can use to move Office
from one computer to another?

You need the copy of the media. However, if it was the Microsoft Home Use
Program, you can purchase another license for $9 which includes an
online-download of the software. A backup CD is $12. If you no longer have
access to the HUP, you can use BELARC ADVISOR to get the license of the
software on your PC and then its just a matter of getting the media.

Since the license is everything, you could borrow the media from someone you
know as long as its not an 'upgrade' version or even buy it online.

At any rate, I would still recommend BELARC ADVISOR as it'll show you all of
the licenses for all of the software on your PC as well as checking that all
security updates have been installed.

No, you'd need to install it on the new computer as you did with the old
computer. Check with your company to see if you're permitted to do this.

Best to call . It is a free phone call for bonafide HUP clients. Just have your
documentation on hand because you will be asked for it.

Here you will find the Phone numbers and email addresses as to where and whom to
contact about Office Enterprise and your issue.
