Try replacing "MyComputer\Program Files" with "C:\Program Files" (leave

After unzipping the Open Office downloaded file, I am getting several
errors opening specific files. I tried to use the Md5sums and
according to the instructions on your website to make sure it
downloaded correctly and completely. Below I have copied and pasted
the directions from your support page:
"In the DOS prompt window, use the "cd" command to navigate to the
subdirectory where you stored the downloaded OpenOffice.org archive
file. For example, assume that your downloaded OpenOffice.org archive
file is in C:\My Documents\Downloads\, then the command would be: "cd
"My Documents\Downloads""."
When I type this in, changing the location because my archived file is
in MyComputer\ProgramFiles, I get an error saying "bad command or file
name". I have tried every combination I know to get this to
work...spaces, no spaces, backslashes, no backslashes, colons, no
colons......I am about ready to give up on this altogether.
I hate to say this, but this is quickly turning into way more trouble
than it's worth. I have been trying to get this installed for 2 weeks
now. I have had computer training so I do know my way around a
computer, but this is ridiculous!
What do I do now, short of uninstalling all the Open Office and
calling it quits?
Thanks,
