All office applications crash when opening a document

Hi,
I'm trying to install office 2000 on a win2k machine (a 2
year old Celeron machine). The installation went well,
but when I try to open a document (well, actually, to enter
with a new blank document) in any office application it
crashes. Word says it's writing a log. The event log shows
(under applications) a Dr Watson report:
"The application, , generated an application error The
error occurred on 09/26/2003 @ 20:03:11.913 The exception
generated was c0000005 at address 308DFDD7 (MsoFPpvRealloc)
"

I got the same problem with no win2k service packs and with
SP4 installed. Also when I installed sp1 & 3 of office.

Following a tip in http://searchwin2000.techtarget.
com/featuredTopic/0,,sid1_gci921775,00.html
The last install attempt was as a new user that was given
administative rights, not with Admin. I didn't understand
the rest of his tip about deleting the profiles.
The problem remained.

Any ideas what's wrong and how to fix it?

Thanks,
Amnon
