Not all computers come with Word these days. Most have a trial version. Did
you specifically pay for word or are you making an assumption that it "came
with the computer".

This isn't a trial version. I bought this computer with the new Window's
Vista a few months back. I hadn't registered word yet, but did today
thinking that may be the problem, but still no luck.

Is it a new retail version that you didn't activate within the required
period of time?
