How can I update Office 2000 Premium without CD (scratched)

[PaulQ]

I have updated to Office 2003 basic edition but still have updates coming for
Office 2000 Premium components. Trouble is my CD ha been scratched beyond
use. How can I get these updates to install.

Also my Print Spooler running under W2K Pro has stopped due to a dependancy
not existing or marked for deletion?????????????

Call MS and get a new one

I doubt very much if the OP can get a replacement for his Off 2000 Premium CD. Not supported or replaced anymore.
He might want to try Ebay or someone that has a legal copy for sale.

Thanks for the suggestion on the CD.

I still have the problem with the print spooler - SC command not recognised
by w2k pro! I have followed all the rest of the instructions but no joy!

I have even tried re-installing W2K SP4 - still no joy.

I think from your instructions that it is linked to an old lexmark printer
that I recently uninstalled.

Any other thoughts?

Appreciate all the help.
