Office 2007 is Genuine but keeps asking for Registration Key

Question
-
Hello
Everytime I open Word, I get prompted with "Please Enter your registration Key"
This was done when we first installed the computer, it has been working up until now, I can click no and continue as normal.
MS websites which test for validation report it is valid, the diag tool also does.
Why is this popping up everytime!

Hello Martyn PB,
Your Diagnostic Report is showing that the Office currently installed on your computer is a Trial Version.
Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office. If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft Office program, it is likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a license (product key) for Microsoft Office.
The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system) and not for Microsoft Office.
Please review the following for additional information:
