Purchasing a new computer but does not come loaded with MS office. No $$$ to purchase the software [$200-$300/pkg]. I have MS office 2007 my old tower; I want to transfer whatever system files are on the harddrive to the new computer. How would I do this. I have an external HP back-up harddrive...it backs up my current system & stores everything there. I'm working in poverty so I don't have $$ or resources to go out & get additional equipment or software. I work exclusively on freeware & MS office suite came with my current computer system which was donated to me through a service organization but the CPU is worn out & I must replace the whole computer. I do not have access to an installation CD from any other source. I did try a burned copy of MS office 2003 but it would not install despite official license key [burnt copy from an original disk]. I'm stuck on this one as it's imperative to have word processing software. I can't have a clone program because then none of my legal, political & business file attachments created on MS word 2007 would open.
