Upgraded to Win2K from Win98 SE

[Mitch]

I upgraded Win98 SE to Win2K. Everything seemed to go fine
until the installation was complete and none of my
previously installed programs were loaded (e.g. Office 2k,
Netzero, etc). I see all the programs folders
under "C:\Program Files" but none of the programs are in
the start menu? I tried running Excel and Word from
the "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office" and receive
a error "This application must be installed to run. Please
run setup from the location where you originally installed
the application."

I'm sure this all happened because I booted from the Win2K
CD-ROM instead of poping it in while Win98 was running.
It's not a big deal for me to reload all the programs
again BUT Office2K won't let me reinstall it. It gives me
an error "Internal Error 2349. Please contact product
support for assistance." I just want to get Office 2K back
up and running. Please help.

Thanks,
Mitch
