    When installing MS Office 2010, I received this warning:

         The software you are installing for this hardware:

         AppVFltRedirection

         has not passed Windows Logo testing to verify its compatibility with Windows XP.

    Followed by a grave warning about the dangers of continuing the installation. Do I really need to stop the installation? I don't use folder redirection -- at least not that I know of.

    The method of install that you are using is the Office 2010 Click-to-Run setup. Try using the standard installation method instead, if aren't specifically wanting to use the Click-to-Run install

    Do you have the latest service pack installed for Windows XP? (Service Pack 3)

    Thank you very much. This worked. However, now my previous Excel doesn't appear in the Open With list -- even after I browse for it. Any idea how to get it there?  It works for my previous Word.

    Nevermind the OpenWith question. I figured out how to do it. Thanks again for your help with the installation.
