    i bought a medion E1222 notebook with windows 7 and microsoft works with home and student etc. when i go on to microsoft works it says to enter the 25 charachter key which i have on on a disc that came with it. i put the disk into my home pc to find out the key as the notebook has no disk drive. i couldent find the key because it says that there is already microsoft works hardware on the pc which is true but i do not want to uninstall the current microft works off the pc. i want to find the key for the notebook. 

    thank you, please reply.

    Hello adamb95,

      You seem to be confusing the names of two different programs, Microsoft Office and Microsoft Works.

     

      Microsoft Office come in a version called "Home and Student" so I assume the issue you are posting about is with Microsoft Office Home and Student.

     

      If you have a copy of Office Home and Student, the product key would be listed either on the sleeve that the Office Disks came in or on a card that came with the disks.

     

      Please Note: New computers often come with a Trial version of Microsoft Office.  If you did not specifically ask to have a Full version of Office included in your new PC (and pay extra for it), then it is likely that the copy of Office installed on the PC is a Trial version.

     

    Thank you,
