Solved Installing office 2007

A friend of mine has just lend me Microsoft Word. His CD is licenced for 3 computers, but he`s not sure whether he`s used the 3 already or not.
I have the Office 07 trial installed in my computer. My question is: Do I need to uninstall Office`s trial version from my computer before I attempt to install my friend`s Office CD? I would prefer not to uninstall it, because if my friend`s 3 computer licence has expired, & I have already uninstalled my trial version, then I`m stuck, & I won`t have even a trial period left on my computer, which is useful to open certain Powerpoint, Word files, even if I can`t create new ones.
Can I go ahead & install my friends Office Cd without unistalling my trial version?

THANKS IN ADVANCE!!!

I don't know for sure but it might be possible, you will need the product key during the install and I would imagine if it had already been used the 3 times you would not be able to continue with the install.

Don't forget to make a restore point before doing anything, you could also make an image of your system then if it didn't work you could restore the image and be back where you were before starting the install.

Those are my thoughts I don't know if they are any use to you, please let us know what happens if you do decide to go ahead.:)

At the end, I did install the Cd, & it all went fine.
Installing the new version of office automatically uninstalled the trial version, & as there was one more license left I`m using it now without problems.
Thank you!!
