How do I reinstal the msword632 converter without the original
installation CD?
Click to expand...

That's the wrong question (although understandable because Microsoft's error
message is misleading).

Go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/973904 and click the FixIt button (or
use the manual method described after it).

Jay, thanks but now, although the error message does not pop up, Word tries
to convert some existing Word docs I've opened with no problems in the past,
and it shows jibberish within the document (Ex: v Ó}±¬dñ Söèoðž´ yK úÃO¢²˜
ŸÚ).
 
See if re-enabling the converter as detailed in the second section of the
following web page overcomes the problem.

Please post back here and let us know if it does so that others may benefit
from the information.

If you uninstall the update, the original converter should re restored. In
any case you can find the old converter in the Windows archives by searching
the Windows folder - but you'll have to spell it correctly in order to
locate it - mswrd632.wpc
