MS Office 2003 - Please Insert Disc
Hi Experts!
On a new puter installed MS Office 2003 and at the last step accidently check 'delete source file'. Now when I want to open ie: Word it asks for the disc. So, went to 'Program and Features' selected to 'change' office and this time around I selected 'Run All From My Computer' (not sure that does anything).
So, whenever I logon a pop box (Insert disk) comes up and says : Please insert a disk into DVD RW Drive (E:). I'm pretty sure this is office's doing b/c its a new puter and right after Office was installed the pop up msg would come up.
If click cancel then it's ok. But how do you remove the annoying pop up msg?
Any ideas?
TIA!

The standard way to repair MS Office is to:
1. Press 'Start'
2. Select 'Control Panel'
3. Double click 'Add/Remove programs'
4. Find and select 'Microsoft Office' in the list, and press 'Change'
5. When it appears select the 'Repair' option and follow the instructions.
You will need your original discs to complete the task.

If that doesn't work you can:
click start, run, & type msconfig... in here you can see what is starting up, you can turn off any office applications that you do not want to start up...
