i type in the activation code that is on the bottom of my computer (hp
pavilion laptop) and it comes up as the code is incorrect please retype it,
any suggestions or solutions for this problem?

I think this is the Windows code - not Office. Was Office pre-installed as a
trial version? The code for office is on the dvd case that it comes in.

This is the operating system product key, eg Windows XP Home Edition or
Vista. It probably says so on the sticker too. I take it you are trying to
activate Microsoft Office. Is this a new laptop? You will often get a trial
version which you then need to buy to get the product code if you wish to
continue using it. Office 2007 is available at the moment for around £50 in
UK. Probably cheaper in US.

That is your Windows activation code, not Word or Office related.
