Re: how do I activate office switching to new computer?

If you Office is an OEM copy (came installed with your old PC) you
cannot move it to your new PC. If it is retail you can move it as long
as you uninstall it from your old PC. When it tries activating you
probably need to use the phone activation method and explain what is
going on.
