How do I install Microsoft 2002 CDs onto my new computer.

[ptrump7up]

My previous computer was hit by lightening and I have been trying to install
the CDs for Microsoft 2002 onto my new computer. I have a 60 day free trial
of 2003 on my new computer, but I am used to working with my 2002. I keep
getting the message that this program has been installed on another computer
and it won't let me get beyond that.

How do I proceed?

What version of Office XP (2002)? If Small Business Edition, it cannot be
installed on any other computer since that version was OEM only and lives
and dies with the machine on which it was installed.

If not SBE, then use the telephone method to activate.
