MS OFFICE 2000, XP, AND COMPAQ PRESARIO MODEL 5010US

[JWJ]

Help,

I recently purchased MicroSoft Office 2000 Professional and cannot get it to install on my computer - a Compaq Presario Model 5010US running Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition. It will only go so far and then hangs up. Although I had severe problems running Windows ME on this computer, I haven't had any since I installed XP.

Does anyone have any idea as what could be the problem.

Thank you.

Personally speaking, I've found that Windows XP has had horrible compatibility problems with many programs (word processing, 3-d graphics, etc...). Off the bat, I'd say maybe trying Office XP would be an option. You could also check microsoft's website for any compatibility issues that they have found. Good luck!
