Microsoft word didn't re-install.?

Question

Recently I had to go in and have Windows re-installed on my computer. When I got the computer home, Microsoft Word was no longer installed. I am tempted to take the computer back to best buy and have them fix it, but I was wondering if there is any way i can re-install it myself.

the discs that I have are "application and driver recovery dvd" and "operating system cd - microsoft windows xp home sp2"

Answer 1

You'll need to buy Microsoft Office for Windows to have Word. If you had Word before you got Windows re-installed, you should still have the Microsoft Office cd.

Answer 2

Personally, I'd be greatful. Microsoft Word causes more problems than it's worth. Use Notepad, or go out and buy a good word processor.

Windows doesn't come with Office installed. When you bought your computer, did you have to install Windows, or did it come installed (like a Dell)? If you did it yourself, you should have the Office cd. If someone else did it, they should've given you the cd. Or else, they still have it.

Answer 3

buy office software, they are not bundled with windows, i guess you can try it out as it wil take 5mins to install and i should be included in a normal reinstall of windows. or ask a frnd for office cd
