Since you said you have an upgrade version of Office you need to remove any
trial version and any activation assistant, reboot the computer, put your
Office 2007 DVD in the DVD drive, start the install and when the
installation program says it can't find a qualifying product, remove the '07
DVD, put in the qualifying product's CD/DVD and ensure the installation
program is pointed to the drive. Once it accepts the qualifying product,
remove the CD/DVD and reinsert your '07 DVD.

Now, if your new compute is coming with Microsoft Works 9 you can use that
as a qualifying product and if there is an error message about no qualifying
product found go to this web site for information to correct that known
