You may have been trapped with a Microsoft Windows update which some of my
machine ran at about this time today. Blew up the OpenOffice presentation
which was running, but it started ok after the updatee finished. The only thin
you can do is wait for 5 to 6 hours and see if it finally finishes
Hi, I am new to openoffice.
Just downloaded 4.1.7 which went fine.
Then msg said needs to do a restart so I clicked ok...
Then the screen says `preparing to configure windows don`t turn off your
computer`.
It has been like this for an hour+ with the rotating icon (white circles) going
round.
