Install Office 2003 in a new computer

Please note: because of the mess with Office 2007 beta, you may not be able
to activate it right now. I'd suggest waiting until the middle of next week
to try this!

Uninstall Office 2003 from the old system.

Install Office 2003 on the new system. If you get a message about it already
being used on another system, select the telephone option and explain it to
them.

Hi Art,

Generally you should be able to install the retail copy of MS Office 2003 to the new PC and then use the online activation method.
If you're prompted to call you can then followup with the telephone activation. The telephone activation method may not be
available until next week, but you may not need to use it.
