Title: Word 2000 problems
Post by: MBussey on May 22, 2003, 01:01:47 PM

Hi.  I'm new to this board, so please forgive me if I mention things that are \"old.\"  Anyway, I'm currently running Win98, and the problem I'm having is in MS Word 2000.  Whenever I start it up, I get these tiny dots on my screen, including on the word cursor.  At first they go away, but they keep coming back, until my PC finally freezes.  I can't even use Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart.  Does anybody have any suggestions or ideas as to what to do?  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks

Find all copies of NORMAL.DOT and delete 'em.
