Office 2007 - Cheating phone activation

[mastermind323]

I have used the sysprep utility to copy an image to a computer with a different hardware configuration. Because the hardware configuration is different, when I open Office it re-prompts me for activation.

I have copied your MSO.DLL to the folder C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\OFFICE12 and reopened Office. However, when I click on "Activate by phone" the activation window disappears and all options and buttons are disabled. When I try to type something, an error message comes up in the status bar saying: "the modification is not allowed because the selection is locked".

What steps do you suggest I take?
