Installing Office 2000 on XP Home

M

Mr Ed

Hi all,

I just got a new computer from E MACHIENS with XP
allready on it and when I try to load my Office 2000 I
get an 1608 error that says cannot find a previous
qualifing windows on your computer and stops the install.

How do I get "Install" to see XP so I can install my
office 2000?

Any help appreciated

What it ACTUALLY is saying, if you read the message properly, is that
install cannot find a previous qualifying version of OFFICE on your
computer. It's nothing to do with Windows XP at all. What you have is an
UPGRADE version of Office 2000.
