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. Please read http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm on how to post

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.
