I Can't Reinstall my MS Word 2007

[harpsketa]

Hello,

I mistakenly took out my MS Word 2007 thinking it was another program. Although I have the installation disk to reinstall it, it's not recognizing it. I do have the product key code and I'm desperate to find out how I can manually reinstall it just using the product key code. I just don't know where I can do that. Can someone please help me?

First, do the repair procedure below, this will allow the system to recognize CD in drive. after fixing that problem, reinstall your word software.
1. Click Start, and then click Run.
2. In the Open box, type regedit, and then click OK.
3. In the navigation pane, locate and then click the following registry subkey:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}
4. In the right pane, click UpperFilters.

Note You may also see an UpperFilters.bak registry entry. You do not have to remove that entry. Click UpperFilters only. If you do not see the UpperFilters registry entry, you still might have to remove the LowerFilters registry entry. To do this, go to step 7.
5. On the Edit menu, click Delete.
6. When you are prompted to confirm the deletion, click Yes.
