Microsoft Word 2007 - key recovery

[Jake2392]

I reformatted my eMachines computer running Windows Vista Home Premium, and when I load Word 07 it asks me for a product key each time. I do not have one since Word came with the computer. How can I get a key or have this popup be stopped?

The vendor you bought the computer from should have included the key for office, the cd for office, or a recovery cd or partition.

I am close to moving this to the Office forums, but you're really asking about key recovery, which is not possible since you formatted over it. I've modified the title to be more specific.
