Did it come preinstalled with your old computer?

If your Office is not an OEM one, you should have no problem activate it
just twice, given your last activation is not in a very close day.

If your Office is an OEM one, then you're not qualify to move it to the new
PC, I believe.

Just uninstall from the old computer and install on the new computer then
use the Phone option to activate if you are unable to activate over the
internet.
