Free Trial-Need Product Key to download-Online info Site?

[Guest]

In buying a new laptop, I was given a 60 day free Microsoft Office trial;
however, it did not come with a product key number. Somewhere (I cannot find
now) it said to go to a certain website to obtain a temp product key. Could
you possibly direct me to that site. Alternatively, I have Microsoft XP Home
Edition; however, when I tried to download, it indicated that the Microsoft
program on my laptop superceded this XP version and that I would wipe out all
if I tried to download. HELP!! I think my best bet is to find a temp
product key number and if you can tell me if downloading the XP version I
have (1985-2001) would be a mistake, please advise. All I really need is
the Word portion of it (unless the new version includes DVD stuff -- I know
more about brain surgery, so sorry -- I would appreciate relying on your
expertise. Thank you, in advance. Respectfully, (e-mail address removed)
