Default how to reinstall OE on a new PC

I got a new VISTA PC with IE7 but still uses Office 2000. OUTLOOK 2000
starts with "OUTLOOK REQUIRES OUTLOOK EXPRESS...."

Appreciate suggestions on how I can reinstall Outlook Express.

On the other hand, OUTLOOK starts up fine after the message. And seems to
work. If I don't install Express, what are the potential consequences?

thnks

Outlook Express is not available in Windows Vista and I very much doubt
Office 2000 is supported in Vista.

Outlook-specific newsgroups include:

news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsoft.public.outlook
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof....configuration
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...tlook.Contacts
news://msnews.microsoft.com/microsof...utlook.General

Outlook used Outlook Express for the newsreader.
You can make a shortcut to Windows Mail as a newsreader.
"C:\Program Files\Windows Mail\WinMail.exe /newsonly"

You can't install Outlook Express on Vista.

For more information on your problem with Outlook 2000, see:
