Upgrade from Works 9 to Office 2003

A

Alan-FTL

I bought a new laptop today that has MS Works 9 installed. I also have an
Upgrade version of Office 2003 that was installed a couple of years ago on my
desktop. The desktop was eligible for "Upgrade" because it had MS Works 8
pre-loaded. I tried to load Office 2003 onto the laptop, in accordance with
the EULA, but it doesn't recognize MS Works 9 and repeatedly asks for the
Office 97, Office 2000, or Office XP disk to be inserted in the drive. How
can I install and use my Office 2003 on my new laptop?
