ok beth seriously the only way you can do this is if you connect to the internet and send the files over aim or get a flash drive...thats pretty much literally all you can do

unless you can figure out how to burn a dvd

this would be so much easier to diagnose and fix in person than it is on tww

12/14/2007 1:20:46 PM

copying just the folder worked back in the earlier days of DOS, but that's about it.

use the flash drive. problem solved. you WILL need an office CD to reinstall everything.

god people fucking read..she doesnt need the office cd...she has an office file thats 1.2gb

12/14/2007 1:21:26 PM

um, what?

wtf office file is 1.2gb?

12/14/2007 1:21:55 PM

12/14/2007 1:22:22 PM

hahahaha

12/14/2007 1:22:49 PM

and most likely, she needs to competely rebuild her computer if she wants it to run reliably. that means restore disk and/or reformat. so she WILL need an office cd.

12/14/2007 1:22:56 PM

well if she saves the 1.2gb file she doesnt need the cd silly

12/14/2007 1:23:30 PM

have you ever successfully done that? I'm not sure if the new office has an anti-piracy "please insert the original cd" thing or not

12/14/2007 1:24:33 PM

^this is the first time i've seen you post without pics of feces following

12/14/2007 1:25:46 PM

dnl how are you so confident that she has a 1.2gb .rar or whatever kind of office file and that she's not talking about the filesize of her \program files\microsoft office directory?

i've got a copy of office 07 thats like 500mb

[Edited on December 14, 2007 at 1:26 PM. Reason : .]

12/14/2007 1:25:56 PM

trust me dude...i'm like 100 percent sure she has a 1.2gb file that works like a charm

12/14/2007 1:27:06 PM

^ she never mentioned she happened to have CD images of the install discs. she wouldn't even know that that's what you would normally need.

12/14/2007 1:27:20 PM

i just checked mine and i have the same

a self, contained, fully installable version of office 2007 on your hard drive? does microsoft really do that????

12/14/2007 1:28:36 PM

microsoft doesnt do that but people do that

i just figured anyone who knew how to do that wouldnt have made this thread

12/14/2007 1:29:01 PM

YOU GOT IT

12/14/2007 1:29:34 PM

and i wonder if dnl has any idea what he's talking about

12/14/2007 1:30:01 PM

I encourage you to select the following:

12/14/2007 1:30:17 PM

lol dnl def. knows what he is talking about

office 2007 iso ftw

on the phone now...

12/14/2007 1:32:35 PM

lol i bet that Mac costs $6,000

12/14/2007 1:33:36 PM

on the phone with who? we told you how to do it

another thing you could try is to see if dh hill has usb drives you can use(they have headphones, boardgames, and laptops...why not usb drives)...anyway then you move the file from your laptop to the usb drive, then go to the unity lab and burn it to a dvd...the unity lab computers have a dvd burner now

OK so she has the setup file

it'll still be useless if you predict her exe-cracking know-how from her "safe mode with networking" know-how

12/14/2007 1:38:56 PM

MS Office 2007.iso 1.21 GB (1,303,404,544 bytes)

12/14/2007 1:39:31 PM

i dont know why your image is twice as big...maybe its a bunch of clipart or other bs thats cut out from my copy

either way i figure she should just make sure to save all her DOCUMENTS...cause somebody can re download office

12/14/2007 1:40:29 PM

is yours word and office and front page

i got like word, excel, powerpoint...all that jazz...but some front page thing or something...or some visual suite something...i forget, there are 2 options for shit to install and i just pick the core programs

12/14/2007 1:42:04 PM

word, excel, powerpoint, access, groove, onenote, publisher, outlook, infonote

oh well...whatever works!

12/14/2007 1:43:43 PM

I am trying to undo the system restore from yesterday so I can at least open in regular mode without the blue screen. We'll see what happens. If not, I'm going to best buy for a drive. Thanks for the help!

12/14/2007 1:44:13 PM

again it might be worth trying a system restore point from a week or two ago...those restores shouldnt delete any documents

12/14/2007 1:45:11 PM

12/14/2007 1:46:21 PM

hey bethaleigh now that i got my new laptop i could just burn you a disk of it

12/14/2007 1:46:56 PM

instead of trying to do this shit yourself, offer someone 20 bucks and a 12 pack to come by and fix it for you. It's apparent you don't know what the hell you're doing.

12/14/2007 1:51:29 PM

i should go find a forum where it's mostly girls and start thread that's like

"OMG I NEED BAKING CHICKEN HELP ASAP"

lol

12/14/2007 1:53:24 PM

lol

12/14/2007 1:57:13 PM

hahah

12/14/2007 2:01:21 PM

I'll fix it for 50 bucks and a 12 pack.

(I'm a computer tech for the State gov)

12/14/2007 2:04:42 PM

the auction begins

12/14/2007 2:11:32 PM

lol. If you can find me, I'll let you borrow a 2 gb flash drive.

12/14/2007 2:30:34 PM

12/14/2007 2:31:32 PM

lol!

12/14/2007 2:35:03 PM

12/14/2007 2:38:38 PM

I would have gladly had someone come to my house and fix it for me IF I WAS IN RALEIGH! (I clearly said on page 1 that I am not in Raleigh - READ THE THREAD!)

I would have paid someone if they had came to my house also. I just never made the offer because I am not in Raleigh.

I called a friend of my Mom's who had a computer that crashed once. She told me that there was an option to undo the restore from yesterday. All this time I have not been posting, I have been talking to her and BURNING MY 1 CD OF PAPERS, AND 1 CD OF PICTURES! She is sending me a burnable DVD because I have a DVD burner, and I can fit the Office '07 on there.

Those of you acting like elitist assholes, all you are doing as looking like even more of an douchewad for being pricks about it when I also clearly said that I don't really know what the hell I am doing. Either way, once I got the system restore undone, I did the rest pretty much ON MY OWN!

So Thanks a bunch to those of you who offered help! I would have gone to Best Buy and bought a drive if I had to (thanks to your suggestions), but I am just glad that I didn't do something so unnecessary and got it all worked out!
