If it came on the old computer, it is OEM and cannot be installed on a new
computer as it is tied to the old computer, live or die.

You can, however, use it for upgrade eligibility.

Purchase an Office XP or Office 2003 Upgrade Edition from your local or
online retailer.

If it is tied to the old PC and dies with the old PC, wouldn't it also
be invalid as qualifying installation on a "new" PC for an "upgrade"?
