    nowbforeal ...Perhaps if you let us in on exactly what the issue is we may be of more assistance.
    And a bit of info on your system might be advantageous as well.

        nowbforeal ......  You failed to mention when this started and if there were any other issues going on. The more info you can provide the easier it is for all.
        Were you trying to do something and it went wrong or perhaps a update or a software install or trying to tweak something ?

        You reinstalled Windows XP??? Did you do a repair install or did you reformat your drive?
        To get microsoft office, you have to have the CD for it.

        An alternative to Microsoft Office?
        I have two accounts, this one doesnt have MS Office so I use Open Office.
        http://www.openoffice.org/
        By the way, its free.  ;)
