I have win2000 Professional and I run Office 2000 also. When I go to open Excel or Word it opens but the second you type or move your mouse it closes. Please help!!
I Have tried to reinstall Office but it wont see the disk in the drive, so I tried disk #2 and it installed good, but it keeps asking for MS Office SR-1. Please help!!

Go to windowsupdate.microsoft.com and see if you need any updates, after that go to the officeupdate and get the servicepacks forr office2k also.

If that does not help, remove the office completely from your system and reboot. Reinstall office after that with the appropriate SP:s.

This might also depend on rights to certain locations on your hdd. You could check your rights to these as well. Can't help you with theses too much though.

Good luck

You need to download and install O2KSR1aDL.exe from www.microsoft.com --> Downloads --> Office 2000 Pro (or standard). That's Service Release 1a for Office 2000.

Before installing it, delete ~*.*, *.tmp and anything in temporary internet files(to make space). The download is like 52 MB.
