Hi Joan, Thanks for your responce: here is the real proble. My system uses
Windows XP but it did not come with Office; My previous system was an Compaq
2000,I got a disk and a CD for reboot: This CD is Windows but set for Compaq
and what I did was load the CD to my current system to use the Office thats
included on the CD. Now I see they are two different systems,and would like
to refrase my original question. Is it possible to extract the MS/office
from this CD and load it to my current system? Here is a list of the package
on the CD. MSOFFS9 (D, IES, MSI, PFILES, SP, SQL, SYSTEM, SYSTEM 95,
SYSTEM NT,WINDOWS, SETUP.EXE, SETUPSE.EXE, SQLWRAP.EXE. On the other hand I
own a Windows XP upgrade original CD: Which of these if any can I get the MS
Office from?,or cant I and if I can how can I do it? if its legal to do
so.Please explain and I hope I have now cleared up the matter. I eagerly
await your responce, Thanks

You are posting this question in the Windows ME group and not a Windows XP
group, also your post is not that clear about what you have and what you
had done.

Are you talking about Windows 2000 operating system or Microsoft Office
2000, as at the beginning of your post you say you needed Windows 2000 to
reboot the Compaq which is nothing to do with the program Office.

Have a look here and try again so people will be able to help you better.

Good morning: I have a IBM 1842STU, the system came without office. I
had a Compaq 2000 and they sent me a Windows 2000 DVD to load if I
needed to reboot the compaq. I loaded the Win 2000 on my laptop and
so when the computer start up, it opens on windows then the system
changes to larger icons and then readjust to the regular XP setting.
Can this be corrected or do I have to remove the win 2000 office.
Desperate please help cause its driveing me bunkers. Thanks for your
help what ever it may be.
