used hp recovery and lost office 2000 install disk damaged

Posted: 28 Dec 2006 11:06 PM PST

If your Office disk is damaged you will either have to source another (Ebay
or similar) or buy a newer version.
MS no longer supports office2k or replaces damaged media for same.

Office 2003 OEM Trial - Disk Cleanup removed setup

Posted: 28 Dec 2006 04:22 PM PST

Not at all strange - the reason Microsoft will not support OEM installations is that the OEM customizes the applications for their machines and Microsoft is not privy to the thousands of tweaks that system builders use for their custom installations.

That, among other reasons, is the best reason to buy a plain vanilla Office package separate from the computer. Microsoft is completely familiar with its workings and you can transfer the software to any future computer of your choice, as well as install on a second and third computer (STE).

| Thank you for the answer. Seems strange to me.

| It's Microsoft's Office setup file.
| Microsoft's Disk Cleanup default setting is to remove.
| Microsoft recognizes it's a bad default.
| Microsoft won't repair.

Office 2007 expiration problem solved!

Posted: 28 Dec 2006 03:41 PM PST

I rather like IE7 and it works just fine on my older computer. As for
WMP11 - yes, it's ugly but since I don't use it much, who cares? It works
and that's what matters.

Should have kept the beta

Posted: 27 Dec 2006 09:22 PM PST

The good thing is (or should be) that you have an older version of Office to
install and use. You'll need to install that converter (unless you saved
everything as an older version) but you'll be up and running.

can't find Outlook 2007 after trial installation of Office 2007

Posted: 27 Dec 2006 04:32 PM PST

Hi, Trying to figure out why outlook wasn't included in my download of
Office Pro 2007. Thought maybe the download was incomplete (there are those
two download buttons). Downloaded it a second time. Still not there.

Tried to install the outlook contact manager, but got the message that can't
happen without outlook present. Thought maybe outlook was part of another
grouping of office programs. Downloaded Office standard. Still not there.

Imagined maybe something about the whole installation of Office 07 was
corrupt (partly because of the warning about sql express being
"incompatible" with some features) but also just to get a fresh start.
Uninstalled all the 07 office programs.

Downloaded a fresh copy of office pro. This time a slightly different
configuration of download files. First few times was 2 downloads of about
300 mgs each, this time the second one was 148 kb. Maybe this will be the
charm. Started the installer.

Noticed that a "custom" installation was offered. So looked at that to see
if outlook was mentioned. It was and I selected it but found out I needed to
remove my old outlook xp first. (This should have been mentioned in the
download/installation instructions, I think)

Removed the old outlook. Ran the installer. No outlook. Ran the installer
and looked at add components. Saw outlook with a big red x saying not
available.

Closed the installer. Sometime later, forget just head scratching, this was
a hair pulling event, opened the add components and clicked on add from
this computer.

So fine, the installer got the outlook 07 that had been there all along and
installed it.

Guess what happens next?

Results in next post.....

YOu will need to remove prior version of Outlook and then re-run Office 2007
setup, using a custom installation and mark Outlook as available.

"(a) install and use a copy of the Software on one personal computer or

Not "primary", not "desktop".

There is no such thing as Office 200. But maybe one of these
articles will apply to your situation:

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=818954 "'Error 1919. Error
configuring ODBC data source' error messages when you run the
Setup program for Office 2003".
