The info you need is in the EULA, about the second paragraph down. To read
the EULA on your computer, open any component of Office (Word, Excel, etc.)
and click on Help. Select "About" from the drop down menu and you'll see a
link to the EULA, click on that and you'll probably see that you're correct,
if you have the retail version you can install on one desktop and one laptop.
Are you getting the message only when you open a component on the desktop or
do you get the same message on the laptop as well?
Did it activate OK?
You might try removing and re-installing on the desktop if it's the only one
causing the problem, not a fix, just something that sometimes works when
strange things happen.
By the way, I'm not surprised that Comp USA and Micro Center didn't have a
clue, license questions are really not their area of expertise, it's pretty
much a question for Microsoft or for here.
Give us some more information about the problem and I'll bet someone here can
give you an answer.
