I bought a new laptop recently and it had a free 60 day trial of Office Vista on it. The free trial ran out so I uninstalled it then tried to install Office XP from a cd I got with my last computer but I had lots of trouble, with it saying I did not have permission from the administrator (which is me anyway...) Eventually my boyfriend helped me out and got it installed after about 30 minutes of trial and error. The thing is, now I want to be able to help my sister do the same thing (my boyfriend doesn't remember what he did, seeing it was pretty much random things here and there until it started working). She lives on the other side of the world so we can't go over and help her, I'd have to email her instructions. Long question, but I'm basically asking, do you know an easy way to change Office Vista to Office XP while keeping it on Windows Vista OS? Thanks in advance :D

It should install fine on any administrator account. If your sister has trouble with it, you can give her my contact info and I'll help her. [ theymos's advice column | Ask theymos A Question ]
