Office XP Recovery Bob 6/13/2007 11:56:01 PM I have a COMPAQ that had Office XP Profesional preloaded. Unfortunately I had to do a system recovery because of a failure in the XP Home operating system. The operating system recovered, but when it rebuilt the registery it left out the activation of the Office XP (I assume). All of the Office files are on the computer, but when you try to open any of them it says the "The requested application has not been installed for the current user. Please run setup to install the application." Any one have an idea of how to get the program "reinstalled" without buying a set of Office XP disks?

Re: Office XP Recovery "DL" <address[ at ]invalid> 6/14/2007 8:57:49 AM Did not Compaq supply the Office cd disks, or were they not included in a hidden recovery partition?
