Suddenly I can't use any of my Office applications since they all want a reinstall. I have used them for years (as Administrator). I have Windows XP Tablet PC Editions sp3 and Office Small Business Edition. I have the Microsoft original cd but it won't go into the Repair mode. When I insert it, a window opens showing a list of a few files on the cd. Can someone give me some help - I'm no pro. Thanks
