Problems with MS Office 2k in Crossover 6.2
 
I bought a copy of Crossover from a friend and tried to install Office
2k but it installed with out a hitch be when I tried to run it it said that there was some type of regristry problem.


Any Ideas??

Crossover Office is proprietary, and can be bought from Codeweavers.
(They will probably send you an invoice, now that everybody know
you have got a copy.) !

Crossover is easy to install, but will only run with an exact kernel fit.
Or is the registry problem a legal issue ? Register and pay.... ?

What I meant was that I bought the rights from him and I know for a fact that he couldn't use it, he has a mac and therefore he could run it
if he had to.

All of the software is legal

When I installed Office 2k the install went with out a hitch,when I
launched Office it said that there was a WINDOWS registry problems

Problems with MS Office in 2k in Crossover 6.2
 
I solved the problem.
What I had done was during the installation I told it to use a pre-existing bottle. After reinstalling MS office it works perfectly


Thanks for the Help
