Office Assistant Reinstallation - How?

[Ray Don]

My computer stops working when a box appears stating, "There was a problem
starting the office assistant. Would you like to try reinstalling it?" I
click OK and the following appears, "The feature you are trying to use is on
a cd-rom or other removable disc that is not available. Insert the Mircroft
Office 2000 Premium Disc and click OK.

Is this 2000 Premium Disc an item that I need to purchase?
