setup failed to locate a valid qualifying product

We just purchased a new computer with Office Basic 2003 on it, and I'm trying
to intall our old stand-alone version of Powerpoint 2002. When I enter the
product key during the installation, it gives me the error message "Setup
failed to locate a valid qualifying product on your machine"

Why is it saying this, and what can I do about it.

Apparently, you aren't trying to install a stand-alone version of
PowerPoint 2002. Instead you are trying to install a 2002 upgrade. You'll
need a qualifying version of Office on the new machine in order to
install the upgrade.
