I'm trying to install Microsoft Office starter 2010. I can't install because of the compatibly issues. Got any best answer?

Short answer- you cant.

Long answer- Starter is only for win7. More importantly, Starter is legally usable only when it comes preinstalled on oem computers preinstalled with win7. So you're also breaching the eula.

I don't see why you couldn't just install one of the more expansive version but limit it to the applications you want. That would work just as well, no?

Oh, fair enough then.

or give me a Microsoft Office beta download link.

I don't belive you. because the starter its not only the preinstalled on the computer. And I have the installation file.

Facts will not change because you don't believe me. Office Starter 2010 is NOT available for purchase, it only comes preinstalled. Where did you get the installation file from?

And quite frankly, I don't see how spending $100-$200 would hurt for an absolutely excellent Office suite full of great applications...
