Hmm... they worked fine last night. Except, if you install the OfficePro on one machine then another, it crashes on the second machine. Stuff downloading it again - already gone 3GB over my bandwidth this month just downloading Vista!

Somebody screwed the activation servers or else they simply are

overloaded cause literally thousands cannot get office 2007 activated as we speak. All are having exactly the same problem. Frank

Frank I had no problems yesterday other than I installed on a xp pro machine and when I ran the tools checking how it was doing that trashed it, had to boot up in safe mode could not uninstalled it from control panel, had to use system restore, haven't tried a reinstall yet.

I installed and activated mine sametime yesterday, so I was one of the lucky ones. -- Andre Extended64 | http://www.extended64.com Blog | http://www.extended64.com/blogs/andre http://spaces.msn.com/members/adacosta "Frank" wrote in message

I activated 2 copies yesterday! :-D But I've two more to go. Frank

EULA says that the copy of Office 2007 (in my case Office Pro Plus & OneNote) that is downloaded can only be used on one machine - they specifically say you can not put it on a second to test against each other.
I think that they expect people to download a second or third copy for additional machines.
Activation servers are still screwed up.

Individual dl's for each machine is the way to go.

When you request subsequent downloads with a different email address you still get the same activation key. So I don now that it matters.
