Windows XP/Vista dual boot setup query

Posted: 10-24-2007, 03:08 PM
If I decided to install Windows XP and Windows Vista in a dual boot
configuration on the same computer, would it be possible to install Microsoft
Office standard 2007 on the Vista and XP partitions using the one single copy
license of this Microsoft office application? Will it be possible to
activate Microsoft Office 2007 on both partitions with the single user
license copy of this product or do I need to acquire another license
eventhough I using the same computer and the same physical hard disk? Please
advise me on this important matter.

I would welcome any suggestions from anybody .

Thanks

You are using the program in two separate operating systems. It doesn't
matter that the two operating systems are on the same computer. Quite a
few of the Office versions allow you to install on two computers, so
read the Office End User License Agreement (EULA).
