Office 2007 S+H Trial version to Office XP Professional 2002

[gnat777]

Hi,

I have just bought a new computer which has come pre-loaded with Office 2007
Home and Student -- TRIAL VERSION. I want to load Office Pro 2002 that I had
on my old computer. How do I go about this?

Many thanks...

Totally uninstall the trial version and any activation assistant you find in
Programs and Features in Control Panel (assuming Vista operating system) and
install the 2002 version, again assuming that the 2002 version is not an OEM
version that came with the original computer in which case the EULA
precludes its installation on any other computer. There may be a few issues
with Office 2002 (XP) on Vista machines. A Google search will turn up the
issues you may expect.
