If yours is a copied version then you are kind of out of luck, in which case try open office.

It will be on the packaging that the CD came in. (I hope you haven't thrown it away!) The Key on the base of your laptop is for Microsoft XP only. Microsoft Office has its own Product Key.

It may be for Windows only. You must have a COA and Key for office (that is not installed on any other machine) If you believe the code is correct you should contact Microsoft for an activation code.

It is quite featureful, I have been using it exclusively for a few years under Linux, and it can import MS Office documents quite well. Microsoft appears to be resurrecting the old trick of breaking compatibility with previous versions of their software, in order to force users to upgrade. You will see no such tactics from Open Office (Sun), they have a solid product and I wouldn't switch back for anything. You may enjoy OpenOffice.org.

Other free options would be Google Docs or OpenOffice. If you have Office on your desktop, you cannot legally use it on your laptop at the same time.
