Office 2000 on WinXP

L

LowNote

I just upgraded my OS from W2KPro to XP Pro using a clean install. I've had
a lot of problems reinstalling Office 2000 Standard. It loaded, but every
time I try to launch the program, it goes through a routine in which it has
to reload at least a portion of the software. Is there a fix for this?

More importantly, I have tried every way I can to download Service Release 1
or 1a so that I can apply the succeeding patches I already have in my
download folder, but it will simply not download. I get a message that it
could not download. I've seen a number of other questions on the newsgroup
about this but nobody seems to have a solution. What is going on at MS?
How can I work around this? Is there an FTP site that has the files? I
"live" in Office and I really don't feel like being forced to upgrade to
Office XP since I don't need its additional capability and it is very
expensive.

Many thanks.

Erik
