i have office 97 that i would like to restall back on my system, because i
need word and powerpoint...don't have the money to get a new version...so the
question is how can i restalling office 97 with office 2000, with out giving
me error messege *16BIT WINDOWS SUBSYSTEM*c:\windows|system32|autoexct.nt the
system file is not suitable to running MS-DOS Microsoft windows application.

now i tried the compatibility wizard on my system at the end it tells me
that i can run it, but behold, it does not work still.

so what next, do i have to buy the upgrade software, or is there any other
way around this.

This newsgroup (microsoft.private.security.spyware.install) is dedicated to
one solution - MS AntiSpyware (not the MS Office) so please ask questions
only about this piece of software. However, solution for your problem is
here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/324767/en-us
 
Mikolaj has posted the correct fix for your issue--but just for some added
assurance--I install Office 97 pretty regularly on XP systems--there's no
inherent compatibility issue--you are just missing a few small files that
the KB article will help you recreate. Perhaps these were damaged or
removed in error as part of a cleanup effort?
