Fresh restore of XP/SP2 and Office 2000

XLS file opening:
- fails when a sheet contains image file with an hyperlink
- succeeds when the sheet contains an image file without hyperlink
- succeeds when the sheet contains only text hyperlinks.

So Opening fails for all my files containing images with hyperlinks. This files are not corrupted (opening succeeds on other computer)

2 Ways to Fail (Way1/small files, Way2 Huge files >20Mbytes):
Way 1 - File/Sheet get open without images after an error message : ...data loss !
Way 2 - File/Sheet opening fails : Exel has to Close with EXCEPTION INFORMATION : AppName excel.exe
Code 0xC0000005 Flags 0x00000000
Record 0x0..0 Adress 0x00000000304bba5a

Help -> Detect & Repair : Not Efficient


What is missing and where ? The xls files have been generated on the same laptop with the same OS&Office versions before I restored everything.

Thanks for your tips & advices !
