Can Only open files using file ~ open

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Workstation running W2K sp4, O2K, Excel ver 9.0 build 2719.
I must open excel first and then use file open on this particular
workstation, the same files open fine on other workstations fine.
Location does not seem to matter, network files vs local. Renaming
files did nothing as well, Uninstalled the Office Suite and
Reinstalled - Same Pblm. If I open my documents and attempt to open an
excel file I get the following. A window opens showing Excel with the
tool bar being visable but were my sheet data should be is being
replaced with a screen shot of the current desktop. Thx in advance ~
