Windows XP and Office 2003?

I took my PC repair and now I have Windows XP and Office 2003 on my computer. Should I have them both? Something sure ' nuf slowed down my computer. I paid almost as much to repair I did for my PC. It came loaded with XP.  Thank you very much for your help!

Microsoft Office, including "Office 2003"is a previous version, is a 'suite' or a collection of programs, including Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Powerpoint, etc.

If you delete "Office 2003", you'll remove all of these programs... that you may or may not care.

You are interested in the creation of documents (paper) or reading documents created by others? If so, you'll probably want to keep your Word.

You care no doubt on the use of sheets (Excel) spreadsheet or presentations (Powerpoint), but again, it is to you.

A potential problem is your email.  One of the programs included in Microsoft Office 2003 is "Outlook 2003", which is an e-mail program that you can or cannot use.  If you are using Outlook 2003 for your e-mail, you will be no longer able to do so, if you completely remove Office 2003.

If you were my grandmother, I would say that you do nothing unless your computer is low on hard disk space: click on 'My computer' and when it opens up, do a right click on 'disk Local (c)' and select Properties; "as long as the 'free space' (shown in magenta) is more that about 15% of the 'ability', you have nothing to worry about).

If you see a screen like this, I would say also that you have BOTH boxes down achecked and then click on the OK button (it will speed up your computer a bit and also free up disk space).  Whatever you do, DO NOT CHECK the box compress things.

    Seems fairly simple to solve, but alas, low version attempts have failed. Windows 7 has a version 06.01.7100 driver. I was wondering if anyone encountered a similar problem and if so you did reslove with magic, a stroke of luck or pure genius.

  • Settings in Windows 7 and Office / settings in Windows XP

    In Windows XP, I was able to change the sizes of fonts and colors for all windows. In Windows 7 and Office 2010, available options appear to be lower, for example Outlook allows only one of the 3 default themes and none of them offer a contrast of colors or the abi9lity to change the font size - I am not referring to the size of the font in an e-mail message (which can be increased by increasing the value of percentage for display) , but on the list of received messages. I know that the magnifying glass can be used, but makes just pieces of the larger screen. I would like to improve the color contrast to make it easier to read and to increase the font size in the Outlook window - change display size affects only the desktop icons and they are not a problem. I know it's possible to downgrade the resolution of the screen but them, everything is very big. It seems to be a method to refine the way in which windows appear, and it is a disappointment, as was possible in XP. Even having a method to change the color for all windows options help that would improve clarity (better contrast between the background and text).

    If someone has found a way to refine the color of windows and font size options or find a way to use something other than the default values for Microsoft for Outlook which they can share?

    I have three old computers in my house.  All three begin to show serious signs of just getting old.  I was recommended to clean my computers.  I would like to reinstall my Windows OS and reinstall the software of my office.  I've lost my records over the years and moving, but still have my product key numbers that I kept in my office files.  Is it possible to reinstall it without a disk?

    BCorb,

    I suggest you call the computer manufacturer and request for an XP CD will be sent to you. It should be for only a few dollars, like $10 or more because it is an OEM copy.

    For the Office CD, if it came with the computer you could probably try to ask them to send a copy as well, although I do not know if your computer manufacturer did.

    See you soon ~!

    I recently had my computer repaired and Office 2007 has been reloaded. Now I get the message "not found when I try to open some files and application for a single file, «windows cannot find the file...»» ».

    If I change the name of the folder, some files were opened.

    In one case, the file opened under the new name [I added a letter], then later not open again - got the same message "application not found" and the Red Cross of death.
