Upgrading computer

zagadka

Office XP SP2

Helshad

Installed it without any trouble. . . Need the original CD though. It is now version 2002 (10. 4219. 4219) SP2 If you have versions before 2002 (10. 4-. 3-) SP1 you might run into trouble. . . Read on other forums that SP2 told them that they had wrong versions and stuff.
