Upgraded to WinXP, but Office Professional does not come up

[Gwen]

Hi. I upgraded my operating system to WinXP. I had
Microsoft Office Professional on my computer. Now that
I've upgraded to WinXP, when I boot up, it is asking me
to load the CD for Office Professional which I do not
have. Is there anyway to get around this or do I have to
buy the Office Professional Suite all over again? Also,
would I buy the upgrade or the new install version since
it doesn't seem to be on my computer? Thanks for your
help.

How did you install Office Professional without the CD the first time
around?

The CD is damaged. I will probably have to buy it again,
but which should I buy, the upgrade or the new version?

You can contact MS for a replacement media:

If it's an OEM copy (provided with the PC) you
may need to contact that PC supplier for the media.

Hope this helps.
