powerpoint launch error

[Marty]

When attempt to launch Pwerpoint 2002 I get the message "powerpoint has
encountered
a problem and needs to close"
After exhausting other options I reinstalled office and this error still
occurs. Do you have any lsuggestions of f=other files that might cause this
problem? My verison of Powerpoint includes the PFCMedia add in as well as
RdP tools starter set. I am using Windows 2000. Thanks for any suggestions

Thanks for the suggestions. I did try the second option. All steps wrok,
except the last one: when I look for Visual Basic Editor under tools>macro
that tool is greyed out and no repair is possible. If I do the repair as
Powerpoint launches, I am back to the same error message and powerpoint
closes. If I decline any fo the repairs, powerpoint will launch, but then
any of the other Office applications have problems (macros will not work,
etc.).

I unistalled Office, and re-installed it. The problem persists. Our tech
support person thought the issue was in my logon profile, and had me disable
that and start a new profile. The problem persists. At this point I cannot
launch Powerpoint. Is this some kind of registry problme that persists even
after uninstalling and reinstalling Office?
