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 |
