Hi. I installed Window7 fresh and then my Office 2007 discs turned up missing. I have the "Office Home and Student 2007" box, with the Product Key intact. (What's left of the original Office installation is tucked away in a folder called Windows.old, created by Windows 7). Do I have to buy a new Office? Thanks!

Since you have your product key, you can order a replacement Office CD rather than having to buy the entire package again. I believe the replacement CD is just a few bucks to cover the printing of the CD and the shipping. More info is here:

Hope this helps.

Thank you Kaneto. That is what I needed. On Monday I will call the phone number in that bulletin you linked. Thanks again.
