I have been asked by a client to refresh one of their machines.
To do this I managed to get Windows XP Setup to run in Repair mode, and while in setup I ran a serial key grabber, which grabbed the key for Office 2007.
The only thing is that the key grabber didn't tell me what edition of Office 2007 was installed.
I have acquired a number of ISOs for the different editions (Home & Student, Standard, Professional, Ultimate) but the key doesn't work in any of them.
Is there a way to get the edition from the Serial Key, or is there a generic ISO that will install any edition depending on the Serial Key?
Just to be clear: I couldn't boot the laptop into XP when I got it, and had to use the getting to command prompt in the second part of the XP setup to run the key grabber, Belarc wouldn't run.
I have now done a clean install of XP. I didn't realise that the Office disks were for only a certain edition.
