    The Product Key is valid & MS office was came preinstalled+activated on my system before I reinstalled Windows 7×64.
    Do you know why is this happening?
    Thanks in Advance.

  8. ^^ Are you sure that the version which came preinstalled in your system was Professional plus? It might be standard version of Office, thats why your key is not working.

  9. ^^ You should check out your computer manufacturer website to know details. AFAIK most of the computers come preinstalled with either a trial version or basic/standard version of Office.
