I spent 4 hours, today, reinstalling windows. The main reason why I reinstalled it was because I had a faulty version of Office XP. I couldn't open Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc. I couldn't even uninstall it.
<mac rant>I know what you mean - we had two computers running XP so we thought we'd network them to share the internet connection. Allegedly you just have to run the wizard and it works - but it doesn't and they seem to have hidden all the network settings so it was a nightmare. We then did what we should have done in the first place installed Linux on a 3rd box and it worked because you can actually configure it (imagine that actually being able to configure your network settings without some 'wizard' messing it all up).</mac rant>
