Used a Recovery DVD to reformat the hard drive, now I can't instal

[movesale03]

Hi, all, I need your help.

I have window XP, Home edition and Standard Edition Microsoft Office 2003.
My laptop is Toshiba A75-s226 purchased in 2003.

Recently I used the Recovery DVD supplied by TOSHIBA to reformat the hard
drive.
Everything is fine except when I went to Microsoft Download to install
"Office XP Tool: Global IME (Japanese)," it failed.

Microsoft Global IME enables me to type foreign lanugae such as Japanese.

The site lets me download the application, but the application can't be
installed on my computer.

Everytime I tried, the pop-up window came up on the screen saying "You need
Office XP."

The Office key code I have is "70141-OEM-5xxxxxx-7xxxx."
It is a product code for tiral version "Microsoft Office Standard Edition
2003 for Student and Teacher."

I had a regular Office Standard Edition 2003, but can't locate the code for
that.

How can I fix this problem? I need to type Japanese text.

Thanks in advance!!

You are looking in the wrong place and have downloaded the wrong file.
You have Office 2003 and you are trying to install an Office XP (Office
2002) add-in. You need one for Office 2003.
