all office 2000 works but outlook freezes the computer every time

[KA6QGR]

I have Outlook from 2000 Professional. No matter what i do that program and
only that program lockes up the computer. I have a duo core with 2gis ram. I
have done eveything i can think including completely removing the whole of
Office and replacing it and nothing has improved. I have tried all the rest
of the suite and all programs work fine just Outlook. Any suggestions?

Reinstalling won't help with configuration issues. For troubleshooting see;

Is your Outlook 2000 installed on a Vista OS by any chance

I'm running Office 2000 Professional on Vista with no problems.
However, Outlook started to give grief after a
Vista update a few months ago. Switched to
Thunderbird with the Lightning add-on for the calendar and task manager
with no problems. Imported my address book using CSV. No problems
since and I still have the desired functionality. You have nothing to
lose by trying and it's free.
