RE: Outlook 2000 no longer runs



Did you increase the vitual memory on the system? Outlook may require more
resources then other programs.

The program will have problem launching if it does not have the necessary
resources.

Once you do that do a detect and repair on the program and also make sure
that all updates are ran on Windows and Office.
