Outlook start problem

R

Rich

Hi

I bought a used computer that had Office 2002 installed. I saw it work and
it ran fine.
The seller did not want me to use his copy so he properly uninstalled it.
When I tried to install my copy of Office 2000, Word, Excel and PowerPoint
run fine, but Outlook will not open.
I get a message that says "required services can not be located"
Can anyone explain what is wrong?

Thanks in advance

Rich

Did you attempt to create a new profile using Control panel, mail applet?
Did you run fixmapi.exe? (Use search to locate it)

Hi Diane

I tried to create a new profile.
That didn't work.
In order to run fixmapi.exe I must know the password.
I called the seller and he could not help.
Anything else you can think of.

Thanks again

Is your .pst password protected? fixmapi.exe does not require a password,
unless you not logged in as admin or local admin.

Hi Milly
I ran fixmapi using the profile that was on the computer and it did not seem
to do anything.
That is why I tried to run it using the admin account.
When you run fixmapi, what is supposed to happen.
Thanks for your help
No, the .pst file is not password protected
