Okay, i need help getting the microsoft office software to work. I just got it and every time i click on powerpoint or any other office program, it tells me that i need the windows installer to run. What does that mean? Im sure its an easy fix but to what they mean is beyond me. I have windows 98 second addition and the office software is 2000. I need this quick, i have a presentation at school tomarrow!!!
