You've organized it badly. The Office license specifically allows one
desktop computer and one laptop (defined by the presence of a battery, BTW)
to have the same Office install (CD key). Not two laptops.

You need to do it again. This time use on CD key for the desktop and one
laptop, and the other CD key for the other laptop. If there's no MS bug in
all this, that should allow you to network them all together.
