Need to install Outlook; lost disk; have key code

I purchased Outlook 2010 and installed it on my laptop, now I want to put it on my desktop and sync them; but I can't find my original disk, and I don't want to pay for it again.

I have the Key code that I used when I installed it on my laptop.  Can I use the files in the program folder on the laptop to install it on my desktop; then initiate it with my key code?

Can I dl a "trial version" from somewhere, run it, then initiate it using my key code?

I have my 2010 Office disk.  With 2007 I purchased Outlook separately, maybe the reason I can't find the 2010 Outlook disk is because this time I didn't purchased it separately; I just thought I did /-:

Maybe all I need to do is install Outlook from my 2010 Office disk; but here's the rub, there is an x (unavailable) next to Outlook.  If I change the option will it become available?

Which option do I choose? User generated image

I have my Student version "Backup Disc; Not for resale" of Office 2010 but I can't remember which computer I installed it on.

I have 2 different Product ID's. Wouldn't the product ID be the same if I'd used this disk to install Office on both machines?  And are you certain about only one machine?  Most  developers allow for a second machine; since almost everyone a second.

How can I tell which machine I installed this on?
