Office 97 Pro installation problem on Windows XP Pro (with SP2)

[Kodesh John]

Hi,
I've had the misfortune of falling for this trap. I've read the other posts,
but they are not helpful because I purchased Win XP Pro with SP2. That is,
SP2 came as part of the Win XP Pro package.

Can I somehow uninstall SP2 components to allow me to install Office 97 Pro
etc before re-installing SP2 components?
Thanks in advance to you all.
John

Hi, John. If you get a "Htmlmarq.ocx was unable to register itself in the
system registry" error message when you try to install Office 97, you can
avoid this error by performing a custom installation in which you deselect
Web Page Authoring
(HTML) in the Office 97 setup options.
