That product key is for Windows, not Word. You need to call HP and ask them
where to find the right one.

Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office.
If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft
Office program, it is likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a
license (product key) for Microsoft Office.
The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system)
and not for Microsoft Office.
Please review the following:
