Board index » Outlook » Outlook installation unable to start, missing file.

Outlook5
I have upgraded to XP and have Office 2000 pro installed,

but I am unable to start Outlook. I receive the

error "The application or DLL C:\Program Files\Common

Files\System\MAPI\nt\omint.dll is not a valid Windows

image. Please check this against your installation

diskette" I have tried reinstalling several times to no

avail. I have tried the Service Pack Upgrade downloads

but these will not install either.



My system is single user, home PC.



Help please!



Thank you



Kevin
