Hello,
I have a HP Pavilion running Win XP Home with SP3. Microsoft Works 8 was
already installed when the pc was bought in March 2004. No discs came with
the pc. I am now having problems when I want to write letters. There is
nothing under quick launch in Works where I usually open the program for
typing. There is Works Spreadsheet and Works Database, but that's all. Any
information as to how to correct this problem will be much appreciated.

Are you saying you once could write letters? (re: "I am now having
problems...")

What was the name of application you used before you started "having
problems"?

What happened to change your use of this application?

Contact HP and find out where your media is (although - you went 6 years
without it - I doubt they will care about your issue now.)

Otherwise - purchase a real office suite or download and utilize a free one:
OpenOffice ( http://download.openoffice.org/ )

Look in this location and see if the program ending in .exe is there. If so
create a shortcut to the Works Word processor program and place it on your
desktop or some place else you desire.

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Works\wkswp.exe
