Re: Cannot start Microsoft Outlook (Problem worsens)

You would need to refer to the paperwork supplied or visit the manufacturers
site for how to create the recovery disks, if you purchased from PC World go
back there.
PS You cannot install from cd by accident, it requires user input
Only Office/Outlook 2003 or 2007 is fully compatible with Vista

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!
