Thanks for trying...After I posted my question where to find the installation files, I was able to locate them on my old hard drive and copied them to the new hard drive and tried to install. That errored out saying 'CD is corrupt'. Besides, even if that install had succeeded, as you pointed out in your later post(s), I wouldn't have been able to circumvent the license key issue (which was on the CD/cover/sleeve itself).
But the good news is, I did find my CD and was able to install (and activate) it. One thing to keep in mind though, the install I tried via the installation files being copied had left some remnants and the install via CD didn't work either at the first attempt. I had to run the uninstall first and then install via CD.
Sharing my feedback with the hopes that it helps other, for what it is worth.
Again, thank you for your prompt responses.
