MS Office XP Activation Window Font Too Big Problem

Posted: 17 Aug 2005 09:11 AM PDT

Todd,

Thanks for your reply.

I have tried your suggestion already -- it has no effect on the font
size within this activation window. It does change the rest of the
computer, but not this particular activation window.

Office 97 - Not enough Memory??

Thanks Susan, I found a previous stand alone version of Word 97 that after I
deleted it and reinstalled Off 97, the problem went away.

Uninstall Utility?

Posted: 17 Aug 2005 07:50 AM PDT

Hi,

I think you should first clearly define the errors you are seeing, and
then decide the best solution. This will save time overall.

I do know the earlier version utility you are talking about, but I don't
think it's the correct solution to this, even if it existed.

2003 Office Student Trial says pc date is incorrect.

Posted: 15 Aug 2005 06:16 PM PDT

Thanks but I did that. The current date,Time Zone and Time are correct. I
think Office Trial software knows that I reset the date but I didn't reset it
to cheat the duration of the trial. It says my pc date/time are incorrect and
says that I need to correct them but they are correct. It won't let me use
the trial software other than in restricted mode (read only).

Microsoft Office Evaluation Kit

Posted: 15 Aug 2005 02:36 PM PDT

Any installation or upgrade of Office NEVER touches your data files created
with a different version (however, having said that, it is always wise to
make a backup of your files before installing any software).

Admin Installs - Office 2003 Pro - Microsoft Update

Posted: 15 Aug 2005 10:02 AM PDT

Hi Sandy,
 

I read all the docs in some detail, and the stuff in the deployment
guide about LIS comes across as propaganda to me. As I see it, the AIP
is the professional route, and recache and reinstall is very quick and
easy - I have no interest in having hundreds of unpatched LIS files and
applying full file client updates - life if too short!

The whole Windows Update, Microsoft Update, WU, WGA, AU, WSUS, SUS, MBSA
1.1, MBSA 2.0, SMS, Enterprise Scanning Tool, saga is a complete mess
anyway, and what happened to the trumpet blowing rhetoric about
"unification", LOL).

Re-installing Office XP on new hard drive

That's irrelevant. As Milly stated if you no longer have the qualifying
media, your upgrade licence is null and void (as you'd have known had you
STFW). Once you use an application to qualify, the two applications become
one and the licences cannot be separated. If you no longer have the QP, then
you no longer have a licence to use the upgrade. You're SOL.

You can, however, use your XP licence as a OP for Office 2003 (providing
you're running a qualifying OS - Windows 2000 SP3+, XP or 2003).

Lost MS Front Page when Updated to MS Office 2003 from 2000

Posted: 14 Aug 2005 04:22 PM PDT

Your best bet is to install from the oldest to the newest. Uninstall all
versions of Office. Then install only Front Page from the Office 2000 CD.
Run all updates you find for Office 2000. Reboot and then install your
current Office version and again, run all current updates and reboot.
Ensure you have them all by again visiting Office Update when you *think*
you are done. Often, one or two will still show up.

Then run Windows Update.

product key screen freezes

Posted: 13 Aug 2005 02:24 AM PDT

Laptop is 2 years old, and is the Fujitsu P1120, whose size is the reason for
no drive. Also, for my purposes, the only thing I'd ever do with it is
install programs. These days, I actually think the drives are pointless,
given you can get sticks which not only hold data in a smaller space, but
don't break and scratch like CDs. So I'll counter your point of getting an
external. I'd argue unless you're watching movies on planes and don't have a
desktop off of which to install programs via network, then today's laptop CD
drive is the more dinosaur way to go than my setup.

As for the product key, it started working for some reason after a couple of
tries.
