Installing Updates for Office

[Jim Garner]

I just took over handling the computers at my new company. They have not
kept any of there old office disks. Some of the PC's are running 2000 and
some are running 2003. They are all using XP. When I try to install updates
I run into issues with either the Genuine Advantage or if I get past that I
need a disk to complete the service pack installation. What can I do?

Help

Thanks,

Please define what you mean by "I run into issues with either the Genuine Advantage".
Please be specific.

Maybe something here helps, except since 2000 is out of support MS cannot
help with that version.
You maybe able to source a genuine 2000 cd from eg EBay of the same version
installed. The 2000 version has no activation requirement.
