Hmm. Methinks you might be the proud owner of some lemon hardware. Might have taken an ESD hit on memory or something.. cause you seem to have a collection of probs from graphics to apps. If you have anyone to swap memory with, I'd start there.

But what else have you done to tshoot your whole box? When was the last time Word worked? What has been installed since?
Depending on the age of the machine and what you have done to it, it should still be covered by a support plan of some kind?
And btw, beware of warezed stuff of any kind.. not just Word.

Another XP Upgrade victim!

Sorry to hear that.. Definately double check your memory chips then!
I've seen memory work just fine under 9x/Win2k but fail under the abuse that XP gives it. Hope it's an easy fix for ya.

Before you upgraded did you run the compatability checker and let it generate a report of everything that would need to be reinstalled or removed?
