Hi there,
I recently had to re-format and reinstall XP from my recovery disk after XP
became corrupted. I can now view my recovery partition which contains an
Office folder (2003) and all the exe's for Word etc.
If I try to launch them I get a message saying the operating sytem is not
configured to run the application. This suggests to me I need to run setup.
The trouble is their is no setup file present. I have no disk as the software
was pre-installed when I bought the PC. (Mesh PC)
I have tried to use Microsoft email support but they insist on a product key
which I cant find out without running the application and I doubt it would
still be there after a reformat.
Any ideas as to how I can get Office working again. I don't want to have to
pay again for something I have effectively already paid for.
Bit long winded I know but thanks for any help.
