How to obtain and activate additional copy of OffixeXP?

H

Homeschol Dad

I have Office XP standard for Students and Teachers (ver. 2002). I have it
on our family laptop, and I need to install it on the desktop which recently
had it's hard drive rebuilt. So I checked the License and intalled it on the
desktop computer, but can't activate it.

Under Software Product License, Grant of License, 1.1 General License it
allows me to "obtain as many copies of the Software Product as the number of
Qualified Educational Users such parent or guardian is the parent of legal
guardian for."

I certainly don't want to do anything illegal, but I thought I was following
the agreement. How do I activate this copy?

Due to EULA changes you can install that on two systems legally now.( it
used to be one)
If you having activation issue's use the activate by phone option you will
need just to explain your issue to the agent.

"Bother," said Pooh as he struggled with the computer.

"It never does quite what I want."

"I wish Christopher Robin were here."

Sorry, but that is complete BS. Office XP STE is one licence *per system*.
True, it's transferable but it *CANNOT* be installed on more than one system
simultaneously. That was introduced with - and only applies to - Office 2003
STE, which may be installed - and activated - on up to three systems in any
combination.

There has been no licensing change for Office XP STE.
