Office Home & Student 2007 - Phone Activation

[David Dyke]

I have Office H &S 2007 installed on 2 of 3 computers. I am allowed 3, I
know.

I am going to buy/purchase a new computer and do not wish to use the last
activation. I wish to activate by phone after loading the program.

(Also, I may buy/purchase another computer in the future and this would
mandate an activation by phone.)

Can/will someone tell me there's 'no-problem' and how to do this? Like, how
do I contact Microsoft?

Thanks.

"I am going to buy/purchase a new computer and do not wish to use the last

Since apparently this will be the third PC, unless scrapping one of the
other two, whats the purpose of the above?

If online activation fails you are directed to phone activation relevent to
your location

You're absolutely right. But I wish to not use the last activation (the one
that is left) for this new machine. But...

All my machines are using XP and (in order) I want to change them all to
Windows 7. (They 2-3 years old and I am using Windows 7 as an excuse to
upgrade them. They are 2 Desktops and a Laptop.)

That means in the near future I'll have to reload and 'phone-activate'
Wimdows Home & Student 2007. I just want to be prepared and know how to do
it. What is the procedure? Please.

Well you'll have to if you want to use the application.

You are labouring under a common misapprehension. You can install and
re-install as many times as you like as long as you don't exceed three
concurrent instances of Office Home and Student..
