 |  Reformatting and MS Office Hey Guys. I hope everyone is having a good day. I just have a quick inquisition. Has anyone ever reformatted their computer with a valid retail copy of MS Office 2007 and then tried to reinstall it after reformatting? Because I've read some forum posts where people had problems. 1. Is there a certain amount of times that you can install MS Office '07? 2. If I run into problems, can I call MS and do activation by phone? Any other comments are appreciated. Thanks. |

   | Re: Reformatting and MS Office The worst you should run into is having to call up MS to have them give you a new activation code... Dunno about any specific number of installs allowed before you have to go that route, at least for Orifice 07. XP Pro used to be like 5 or something along those lines. I never had much problem with talking MS into giving me the new activation code, once I had reformatted/reinstalled XP Pro...
