windows vista refuses open office suite
Posted by admin on Jun 19th, 2006
Tried loading open office suite 2.01 from a MaximumPC CD onto a new Acer Aspire notebook I just bought running Vista OS. Got "Error opening software/sysdetect.exe" as soon as I closed the DVD drive, and then "Error opening software/apps/OOo_2.01_Win32Intel_install_wJRE.exe" when I clicked Install. Wil Vista be made to load this suite? Anyone know how? Theseus Tired

OO is up to version 2.1 now. You could download that version. Michelle reported that OO messed up her laptop she didn't say which brand she has. Uninstalling OO restored her laptop's function. Maybe she skipped installing Sun's JRE6 before installing OO. After doing that, download and install the almost 100MB OpenOffice 2.1: openoffice.org/"Theseus Tired" <Theseus Tired@discussions.microsoft.com>
