I actually think that some computer makers include an OEM version of office

of the OS and all installed programs. Where if you screw up or remove that
partition
you can download a CD image to recreate that partition and restore it.
Not that I would buy such a thing but I know these things can happen

I still say you should have a legal copy, and not a bootlegged copy you
bought from some random computer store.

In Excel i clicked Help/Detect & Repair. It asked for the original
source
disk which I don't have and didn't recieve with my computer. Now I
can't
even start Excel. It always tries to install Excel and asks for that
source
disk. I'm using Office 2003 Standard Edition. Any Suggestions?
