    Office 2000 didn't install

    Hi Folks,
    I wonder if anyone can help with the following please?
    I recently upgraded from Win98SE to WinXP Pro.
    The XP Pro CD contains MS Office 2000 and this gets installed on a clean install.
    However, when I upgraded my Win98SE system, it has retained the old MS Office 97 stuff.
    How can I now upgrade MS Office please?
    Regards.

    It sounds like you did an Upgrade or Repair Install.

    What you most likely need is a Clean Install. This will format (remove all data from the hard drive).

    Good guide here:

    If your XP CD is an upgrade CD then you will need your 98SE CD in order to verify a previous version of Windows which qualifies the Upgrade CD.
