Do you have Administrator privileges or rights for this
computer?

What happens when you try? What specific error messages do you get?
What do your system event logs report? What specific troubleshooting
steps have you already taken, and what were the results of each?

No one can help if you don't provide at least a modicum of information.

1) The word is 'advice' - 'advise' is a verb.

2) Sorry, my crystal ball is on the blink - what does "wont let me"
[/sic/] mean? We can't see your computer, you know!

3) You may also wish to learn how to correctly punctuate a sentence.

Do you get any kind of error message when trying to install office 2000?
What version of XP are you using.

I use office 2000 on a windows xp home edition system and it does work
perfectly.
