>>>Well, I took my income tax refund to the computer guy today and came home with an Athlon 4200 dual core box today. It runs great. It also came with Vista home premium edition. After five hours, I find myself wanting my XP pro back. Maybe a few more days of tire kicking will change my mind. I'll let you know.

>>>Oh yeah. My web cam is no longer compatible.

>>"all my Vista troubles got fixed with a harddrive reformat..."
>>As for me, i am waiting to find the time to move my Internet Mail messages from Vista back to the older Outlook Express in order to reformat my main computer...

>I installed Office 2000 this morning - everytime I run Outlook it asks me if I want to make it my default mail app and I reply yes. I get my mail. I try to open my email then Outlook crashes. I install O2k SP1 and get the same result. I use detect and repair and it tries to install O2k SP1 again. Round and round it goes. Does anyone on the UT have a fix or work around for this merrygoround?


I don't know the answer for sure but I would suggest log on as administrator, uninstall it, then re-install it. I say this assuming you installed it as non-adminstrator and perhaps there is a rights issue at play. Also, have you confirmed that O2K is Vista compatible?
