activation question

[Roger C.]

Apparently I had a bootleg copy of office 2007. I started getting the message

with the count down before my version of office would be mark as not genuine.

So thru my work, I was able to buy a LEGAL, yes legal copy of Office 2007

Enterprise thru Microsoft for cheap. I installed it , but I’m still getting

the above warning message. If I try to activate it again, office tells me

that my copy of office has already been activated. I’ve emailed Microsoft of

this problem and a copy of the email from Microsoft of the purchase. I

haven’t heard back. And there is no way I’m going to pay for their tech

support to solve this problem since I am a legal registered owner of Office.



I really don't want to unistall and reinstall office in fears of losing my

contacts and settings in outlook.



So what do I do now?

Before you installed the new one, did you completely uninstall the bootleg

copy?

Did you completely uninstall the pirated version and the Activation Assistant before

embarking on installing the Office Enterprise that you purchased through the HUP
