| 848979 | 2010-01-15 08:18:00 | Discs came with daughters laptop. Can I install these on my Windows XP or is that illegal? | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 848980 | 2010-01-15 08:35:00 | Depending on what you want to use in it. You could use alternatives like Openoffice (www.openoffice.org). Or Oxygenoffice Pro (http:) which is an enhanced version of Openoffice. But its also bigger | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 848981 | 2010-01-15 08:48:00 | can I install the discs I have instead of going for open office | dianne pierce (13385) | ||
| 848982 | 2010-01-15 09:03:00 | If it doesnt need activating (I dont know if it does), I cant see why not. If it does, then you maybe able to install it. But then you'll have to activate it. Or it maybe tied to your daughters PC, if it came with it (if its OEM or something) | Speedy Gonzales (78) | ||
| 848983 | 2010-01-15 09:05:00 | it will install, and works doesn't require activation. "Legally" if its an OEM version then its meant to be on original PC only. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 848984 | 2010-01-15 09:10:00 | After the install you will get a screen asking you to register. If you don't then you will get no product support. | Sweep (90) | ||
| 848985 | 2010-01-15 09:28:00 | it will install, and works doesn't require activation. "Legally" if its an OEM version then its meant to be on original PC only. And even if not, you are probably only supposed to install it on one PC at a time. However, I personally wouldn't care in the slightest which PC it was running on, as long as it's not a pirated copy. I doubt anyone is going to check anyway |
