Hi,

I have an original copy of office XP standard for students and teachers
edition that I purchased for a PC I bought 3 or 4 years ago.

The PC is dead, will MS allow me to install this s/w on the new PC I am
making?

Or will they says that it was purchased for the other PC so that's all I
can use it on so hard luck buy another copy?

That is spelled out in the license that is included with your product,
probably filename LICENSE or something like that. Have a look on your
distribution CD.

It will install fine. It will also update and pass all WGA tests (if you are
not one of the few unlucky ones). Student/Educator versions are just like
any retail version in that regard. You can install it on up to two systems
at one time according to the EULA, but I have mine on a desktop and two
laptops without problems. YMMV.
