Belarc says, "KEY:" and has the product key that matches the box. I pulled

all four boxes and ran Belarc on the three laptops that are still running.

The dead one I have a Belarc printout from Feb 2009. And the keys match the

product key that is on the CD case. And each one of the three with the same

product keys has a different product ID. Anyway, the question is do I have

to reinstall Office 2003 so that each laptop has its own product key?
