Using a newly bought computer with Vista at work, my boss discovered (after I had informed him about a dozen times) that there was no software applications installed on it. So, I tried to install a copy of MS Office 2000 and it wouldn't accept it!
Microsoft Office on Vista

You need Service Pack 3 - see the link I posted earlier in the thread.
If you want to know what works on Bisto, your answer will be there.

There is no reason trumpy for that unless you have not installed it correctly, or you dont have a 'key' for it, we have it on several comps both vista and xp.

Re: Microsoft Office on Vista
Sevice pack 1 or two or 3 or vista, if installing on vista, you just need to make sure you have ' admin right' (fuck of bill) If it was me I would disable all admin rights on vista and accounts, waste of time.

Liz, I tried to install a copy (not an original) of MS Office 2000 on to Vista and it wouldn't accept it - a message appeared saying something like "unauthorised installation, not compatible". I had punched in the key number in the correct place, ran autorun and clicked 'install' - but no, it wouldn't let me continue and that message came up.

Re: Microsoft Office on Vista
Do you have to run it in "Windows Compatability Mode" though??
I think the point of having all these admin rights Lizard is to stop "unwanted programmes" running in the background, ie spyware, viruses/keyloggers etc. so maybe better to leave it on or go back to XP.

PEOPLE think Stephen Hawking is so clever, but when you ask him a question and he is typing in the answer on his little screen, how do we know he isn't just looking up the answer on the Internet?
Re: Microsoft Office on Vista
Trumpton did you even read what Lizard said mate,
open the disc and right click the programme setup and "run as administrator" or else it won't install correctly.
FFS do you think lizard types shite for nobody to read??

I did read what Liz wrote. But he wrote that AFTER I tried to install a copy of MS Office 2000 on to Vista.
I shall follow Liz's advice tomorrow when I'm at work.
