Install Office XP on new computer

[Michele]

I recently purchased Office XP and installed it on our
computer. We have now decided to replace that computer
and would like to uninstall Office XP and install it on
the new computer, but when I originally installed it, it
said I could only install it once and that was it. Is
there some way to switch computers? Thanks!

if it was an OEM copy, you can't transfer it, for retail ones, choose the
phone activation method to activate.

Will phone activation not work if the the software was
not uninstalled from the old machine? What if it was a
complete computer crash?
