Seffiks Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 instructions for installing MS OFFICE, what does the first sentence mean? i extracted but theres no .iso files ? do i just click the launcher? you installing 07? if you extracted using winrar ( what extracted was the ISO ) you want to mount that single file you pressed to a disc using magiciso or something but sense you got it extracted already to the harddrive( which takes up more space) just press anything that says setup or installer or just ranom .exe files one will be the setup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seffiks Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 if they are not into 2003 then there is not a problem with putting on 07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
^ . ^ Posted November 9, 2007 Share Posted November 9, 2007 well after I installed it and it was done self extracting, it wanted to install itself. So I just followed the prompts but then it just sat there, doing nothing. is it ok to exit out of the setup and just follow your instructions instead?

Guest shai_hulud Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Casek- I think I may have solved that PPC issue. But, I have another question. (I'll wait to see if you are here.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mauler5150 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 mauler what firewall are you running? Sorry been sleeping. I use comodo as you said it was good. Anyway, I tried unplugging my router and going straight from modem to my ethernet jack, and this didn't help matters at all. So I have no idea what to do. I'm getting furious about this, as I haven't been abel to download anythgin for a week now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mauler5150 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 also why the fuck do i have like 70 running processes and im using 78% of my ram constantly I'm in this same situation also. I have no idea what I can cancel or not. Migth be time to start again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shai_hulud Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Mauler- check your ports. Go to portforward.com and they'll get you up to date. Also, make sure your firewall is allowing in AND out traffic for the DL client. 70 processes at 78%? That's fucked up. I had one XP install down to 14 processes/12% @ idle. Well, RAM is cheap nowadays. I probably wouldn't try that now. But it can be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
