I have Office 2000 on a PC at work and am upgrading to a
new PC. Am I able to uninstall the Office 2000 software
and reinstall this onto my new PC? How do I go about
doing this? Will I run into any difficulties when
reinstalling? Thank you for your help.
 
Hi Megan,

There should be no problem with this, assuming you still
have the installation CD's. To uninstall on the old
system, place the first disk in the drive, click Start,
then Run, then in the Run dialog type "d:\setup" (assuming
that "d" is the drive letter for your CD-ROM drive). When
setup launches, you should be given options to repair,
reinstall, or uninstall, and you should choose to
uninstall or remove all. If you have a second disk (Office
Pro, etc), repeat the process with the second disk. Then,
on the new machine, just place the first disk into the CD-
ROM drive, autorun should automatically launch the setup
application, allowing you to install (if autorun doesn't
kick in, do the "Start-Run" steps again to run the setup
program). Hope this helps!
