Question

Hi
Recently I had our home Pc ghosted after being told to do so by Dell technical support,I' m being told my product key is invalid. I ran the MGA Diagnostic as seen in other forums(the 15digit product key differs from the Product key sticker on the top of the modem) I am having trouble with MS Office, I am using Windows XP on a Dimension 5000. Please help me.

Hello mrLambe,
Microsoft Office Basic Edition 2003 was distributed as OEM software. It is likely that your installation of Office Basic 2003 was somehow corrupted which would account for the unusual status as shown in the mgadiag report:
OGA Data-->
Office Status: 104 Unknown PID
Microsoft Office Basic Edition 2003 - 104 Unknown PID
OGA Version: N/A, 0x80070002

Are you using burned discs or the original genuine Microsoft hologrammed installation discs that came with the computer from Dell? Whenever possible use the genuine discs rather than burned for greater installation stability and to eliminate the chance of inadvertently installing malware that can come with burned or downloaded installation discs and/or files.
Once reinstalled, restart then go back to www.microsoft.com/genuine and click on the Validate Office button. Then post back to let us know the results :-)

Hello mrLambe,
Please go to http://microsoft.com/genuin e and click the Validate Windows button and then the Validate Office button. Tell us what happens.
Thank you,

followed the steps for validation-installed as directed.
got this:
Many customers are surprised to learn that their Office software cannot be classified as genuine. Our goal is to help you understand the reasons why your copy did not pass validation, and to show you how you can address this situation
as I said I bought this Dell dimension with MS Office pre-installed?
