Could you point me to where I could get this

Pretty sure that's the newest version.

Hmm... Still no dice.  Not sure what I could be missing.  Oh well, guess I might be stuck with Office 2003.

If you require new features, you can run libreoffice 5.4.7.2 portable
otherwise, if you just need it for basic office-ing, 2003 should work fine.

You could always install the Office Compatibility Pack. That way, you can view docx files.

That's an excellent idea.  I think I'll do that.

Have you tried the installation on a newer OS? If you get the same error, your copy may have some corruption.

But yes, as long as you get SP4 UR1/USP 5.1 and the extended kernel v3.0x installed, plus the OS version trickery, and do not install Groove, you should be fine.

@win32

How exactly were you able to get yours working?

I have KernelEx, the latest one for English - which is labeled 18g but says 18f in the installer.

I still get "This program requires a newer version of Windows to run".

I already had USP 5.1. I can't install the Application Verifier as that also says it requires XP. How can I get setup.exe to run??

This same setup.exe worked fine on XP.

Version 3.0e is the latest English version. Use NNN4NT5 (which will either be in %systemroot%\WINNT or Windows 2000 Power Pack start menu folder) to make software think it's running on XP.

@win32Aha, I didn't scroll down far enough. I just grabed the 30e file (v3.0e I guess).

I don't see a NNN4NT5 folder or file in my WIN NT folder. Where is the W2K power pack start menu folder/where can I get it?

NNN4NT5.exe is the name of the file. Some people have had to install the extended kernel twice to get the start menu folder to appear.

I installed it twice and I still don't see it. I don't see KernelEx explicitly as an installed program now, but some of the things it installed show up. I had to do a manual restart each time (it wasn't automatic).

I still don't see the file, either.

You'll find NNN4NT5 (along with fcwin2k, which is for tricking individual programs), in the cab file downloadable here:

What do I do, exactly, just run the two .exe files? Or do I need to move them into a directory?

[win32]

You can just run them.

OK, now when running setup I just get that OSETUP.DLL cannot be loaded - same as what happened to someone else. I don't see a solution for that in this thread previously.

You should try replacing riched20.dll in system32 with the one from XP SP3 or win2k USP5.1.
