Hi friends,

I am using an old version of Microsoft Office which is the version 2003. When I decided to use the newer version Microsoft Office 2007, I removed the older version, the removal process was done successfully. So I installed Microsoft Office 2007, it was installed successfully.

After it, I also upgraded my anti virus to latest version by removing the older once, and installed the latest version, and updating it virus definitions.

After all those process, I restarted my computer. When I rebooted my computer and windows stated, and error message appeared that said windows recovered from a serious error. 

The system has recovered from a serious error.

A log of this error has been created.

Please tell Microsoft about this problem.

We have created an error report that you can send to help us improve

Microsoft Windows. We will treat this report as confidential and

anonymous.

I don't remember meeting with errors when I did the mentioned process above. Could somebody share some ideas for me to understand the error I meet. 

Thank you.

Hi,

I can help you with the error message on your Windows operating system.

  • Please make sure the computer’s date and time are set correctly.
  • Make sure your computer has the latest updates installed.
  • Check if the Windows XP has service pack 2 or above installed.
  • Check if all the hardware drivers are compatible with the Windows XP operating system.
  • Try scanning the computer with the updated antivirus program on your computer.
  • If this does not fix the issue, try restoring your computer.
  • To restore, type “rstrui” in the Run command (Windows key + R key) and hit enter.

This should fix the issue on your computer.

Thanks and regards,

Skarbos Jay.
