WORD 2000 Under WIN98 Suddenly began crashing when starting.

J

Jeff Wisnia

After several years of working faultlessly, when I went to start
WORD2000 today the program displayed the initial "WORD 2000" sign and
then stopped loading just as it began to fill the window.

I could not get the close program box to appear, so I restarted WIN98
and got the same disappointing results when I tried to start WORD again.

I uninstalled WORD and also WORKS and used regedit to remove the few
remaining entries for MSWORD and MSWORKS. I also deleted a few folders
containing items relating to WORD and WORKS.

A reinstall of WORKS and WORD from their original CDs got me right back
where I started from, WORKS seems OK, but WORD stops loading and hangs
up the computer before it gets very far into its loading process.

Help please?

Thanks guys,

Jeff
