| I am trying to install Office 2000 on new Windows XP computer. It gives
error 1913 could not update the ini.file win.ini verify that the file
exists. On this computer, the file is simply called WIN so I followed
several articles I found concerning this error and it is not marked read
only and it won't let me copy and rename it. Any suggestions?
