Hi

I have a copy of Office 2002 H&S. I have installed it on the desktop PC and
laptop and I one more laptop which I have yet to install it on. I just
replaced the motherboard of the desktop PC and had to clean install XP. If I
were to re-install Office 2007 on the desktop PC and then activate it would
that use up my last license activation and then I would have to wait 90 days
before installing it on the other laptop. If you are allowed to re-activate
every 90 days on a different PC (because of upgrade etc) how does it know
which PC you are upgrading or does the 90 days start from the first
activation and then roll to the next one to start counting the 90 days from.

No it doesn't. The licence is for three COMPUTERS not three installs - you
can uninstall and re-install as MANY times as you like as long as the
software is only installed on three computers at any one time...
