Yes, you should have removed the trial version of Power Point before
installing Power Point Viewer. Probably (but not for certain) you can undo the damage by uninstalling both of them. If that does not work, you may want to wipe the computer clean and start again. Steve |

I was afraid I should have deleted the trial version, phooey. But I can go back and delete the free program I just installed and hopefully this will set me straight. I'm going to look at the site Peter posted as well and see what it looks like compared to the Microsoft site I used. |

This sounds right up my alley! The laptop has been fantastic and I HIGHLY recommend dual processors and I do like Windows 7. There's been no slowness or bogging down at all. But when you get an excellent price on a new lap warmer sometimes the trade-offs are 'trial versions' of programs. My first laptop, running XP, had everything on it but a chain saw and I didn't encounter this problem. Of course it cost twice as much as this one, but thankfully laptops have dropped dramatically in price over the years. |

Hi Peter. Be advised that the laws of your country are a bit different and what you suggest may be illegal in another person's country. |

Be advised Peter lives in OZ and the laws there make some things legal that are not in other countries. That may not matter to you, but it's good to at least be aware of it. Next, like Steve says, ininstall the new software and the trial. Then, http://download.openoffice.org/ has a MS Office clone, open source and free (legal) in all countries. It will do what you need and more. Carol |

Nope, it's supposedly 'illegal' here too. As stated just before, btjunkies site keeps your IP etc hidden/invisible, so no one can see who's doing what. > That may not matter to you, but it's > good to at least be aware of it. btjunkie has been going for quite some time and I haven't yet heard of anyone using it who's been busted. > > Next, like Steve says, ininstall the new software and the trial.

I've tried Open Office, after being an MS Office user for about 15 or so years, and it doesn't 'do it' for me. -- Peter Lucas Hobart Tasmania A good friend would drive 30 miles at 2:00 am to bail you out of jail.

You should be able to uninstall that trial version... go to Control Panel, click on Uninstall A Program. If you installed the Microsoft version over it you may need to reboot before you can uninstall that trial version. |

Well, there are some things 'legal' where you are that aren't in some other places. Your copywrite laws are quite different. It really is noticable when it comes to shareware but there's other times when it comes up. >> That may not matter to you, but it's >> good to at least be aware of it. > btjunkie has been going for quite some time and I haven't yet heard of > anyone using it who's been busted. It's not so much getting busted. Some folks prefer to stay on the legal side. Like me, clearance issues (lie detector tests, stuff like that). >> Next, like Steve says, ininstall the new software and the trial.

I liked it well enough, then MS came up with a program for a 20$ copy of Office 2010 for home use for all military and retired military. USA only I believe? I registered and downloaded my copy, and paid a nominal extra fee to have them mail me an install CD as well. Before that, I used Open Office or it's ancestor, Star Office back in the early 90's. |
