Okay so one of my machines started acting up today. When I try to open word I get the error reporting window poppong up. The details list a crap load of stuff but I cannot cut from the report and paste it here. I tried renaming the normal.dot file and that did not work. I tried uninstalling office completely, reinstalling it and then updating the patches etc. That did'nt work so I did a system restore to yesterday when everything was working fine but that did not work either. Please HELP!!!!!
