    I have recently installed a new HD and made my old smaller one a slave drive.
    Having set up XP on my new drive and installed a copy of Office 2000 on the boot drive, I would like to uninstall Office 2000 from the old drive but 'add and remove programmes' only seems to work on the current boot drive. Any ideas of how to uninstall this with minimum of problems?

    Hello bg9208!

    Will You ever again use the old drive as master and run Windows and programs other than Office from there?

    If the answer is no, copy the files and folders that You want to keep to the new drive and recover the full capacity of the old one by simply formating it. That will result in a fresh slave with no "left overs" from previous installations.
