Microsoft Key Product

Hi
I purchased a Hp Pavilion dv-6b77dx with office installed before almost 2 years and the laptop was running perfectly until i faced some problems ( had viruses.......) so had to restore it to its original factory setting "formatting" the laptop. Then I was trying to activate the the key product for Microsoft office but while doing that I faced problem when getting to the cod validation step i basically keep on getting a msg that my cod is not valid although is used the same cod the first time and i thought that the key product should be valid for the same laptop no matter how many times it have been installed to it i can provide you with pics from the product cod that i got as a sticker on my laptop
hope to hear from you soon
Best regards

The Product Key on the base of the laptop is for Windows, not Office.
If you purchased Office, you will have a separate License for it - and separate packing which should contain the product Key.

What EXACTLY does the 'Microsoft sticker' on the base say? - there are very few OEM Office stickers in existence.
(DO NOT post the Key)
