Re: Cannot start Microsoft Outlook (Problem worsens)

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

The OS was pre-installed. The salesguy said I could make program disks myself. Where is this option hidden?

If you have the original Vista disks you bought you don't need any other CD.

There's info about the problem on the internet, saying basically that there's a conflict with Office. The solution suggested was to click on the Mail icon in the control panel. When I do so, I get the message "You need more memory or systems resources. Close some windows and try again." But hardly any resources are being used.

I think the problem may have been caused by installing Office 97. I did it by accident. I'm having problems uninstalling it. There's a side bar which is still there even after uninstallation. If I try to unclick the only option chosen in the list, it says a toolbar must be there.

And even after this partial uninstall, I'm still getting the insufficient memory message.

What can I do?


After the last message, I repeated the uninstall, this time successfully. (I retained the shared componets.) I now see that Office 97 had the Outlook stuff on it. After rebooting, the Microsoft Outlook icon had gone. (And I still get the insufficient memory message.)

Even worse news. When the machine was automatically installing Vista, I didn't get a Create a Vista CD option (I don't think). So I don't have a back up of the OS I bought this morning.

Help!
