Office 2003 Basic Edition - Reset Key and Activation for cloning
Hi,
I have 4 brand new computers, all with exactly the same hardware
brand/models. I also have 4 Windows XP Pro OEM licenses and 4 Office 2003
Basic Edition OEM licenses, a pair for each computer, so they are legit.
Now I've installed Windows XP Pro and Office 2003 Basic on one machine, and
I want to clone the disk to the other 3 machine hard drives.
I've used sysprep to prepare the system for cloning, and after restart,
windows shows a mini setup screen sequence to setup the system.
The problem I have is with Office 2003 Basic Edition installation ... it
doesn't ask for any info regarding key/activation.
I mean, I've activated windows and office so I could run webupdates and
install all security/enhancements available. Windows re-asks for key, and
I'll have to reactivate it, so I can setup the 4 different keys in each
computer, and they will be legit. Now with office, it doesn't ask again for
the key, so I'll endup with 4 computers with the same office key ... and
probably with the same activation ...
How can I make office to reset key and activation? Any Sysprep tool specific
for office?
Thanks
