Probably better to ask this on the user list rather than the discuss list. However, if you look at: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/release-notes/ there is a reference to "If you run Windows 2000, you may require this update before being able to install LibreOffice." which links to: <http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&FamilyID=889482fc-5f56-4a38-b838-de776fd4138c&pf=true> "Supported Operating Systems:Windows 2000 Service Pack 3;Windows 2000 Service Pack 4;Windows Server 2003;Windows XP;Windows XP Service Pack 1;Windows XP Service Pack 2" I wonder if perhaps that may be the issue?
