I got a new HP with no Office loaded about 18 months ago and bought the

Office Small Business 2007 UPGRADE software at the same time. I never loaded

it though. Now I have the Trial version of Microsoft Office and am trying to

load the upgrade. My computer is not recognizing the disks as valid. I

tried to go into Microsoft and register my upgrade software but it tells me

the product key is incorrect.



If I uninstall the trial Office from my computer, will I be able to load

from the Upgrade disks?
 
You have to uninstall the Trial & Activation Assistant via add/remove, then

reboot your PC.

However a trial is not a qualifying version for an upgrade, so unless you

find qualifying software you wont be able to install OSB 2007 upgrade
