    Hi Des!

    Check the license text but I'm pretty sure that it covers one installation only. He will have to uninstall from one computer to fix this problem (and probably give Microsoft a call).

    The board policy is to not assist in circumventing licensing issues and I close this thread.

    KB936929 is SP 3 - sure you have the right number?
    Office may be installed on 2 computers - try more and the program will not activate.
