To Whom It May Concern, I downloaded OpenOffice 2.0 a few days ago on a Dell Inspiron 2600 with windows XP and have loved using it. I also have an IBM ThinkPad that is not currently connected to the wireless modem in my house so I could not download it directly onto that laptop. So I burned a CD with the info for OpenOffice and used it for installation on the ThinkPad. I used mostly writer for about two days when in the middle of a document the compter sort of "crashed". There was a blue screen saying I had to turn it off and then back on again. I did so and this has happened about four times. Each time there is less time inbetween the crashes. The last time it just goes to the blue screen. Has this happened to other OpenOffice users? Do you know if this has something to do with OpenOffice or should I look for another cause. Does this mean I should be using XP for OpenOffice to work? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks Troy Hanson ps. the blue screen says ***STOP: 0x00000067 (0x0000004, 0x00000007, 0x00000000, 0x00000000) CONFIG_INITIALIZATION_FAILED If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps: Check to make sure any new hardware or software is properly installed. If this is a new installation, ask your hardware or software manufacturer f or any Windows 2000 updates you might need. If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed hardware or software. Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing. If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your computer, press F8 to select Advanced Startup Options, and then select Safe Mode.
