If you really want it, you can purchase a copy of Microsoft PowerPoint 97 (or Microsoft Office 97 Standard, which has Microsoft Word 97, Microsoft Excel 97, and Microsoft PowerPoint 97 on 1 CD) at many places. You try a search on eBay, Yahoo! Auctions, or your local computer store (ex: CompUSA). I prefer the Computer Show and Sale.

Why do I say Office 97 instead of Office 2000 or Office XP? Generaly, most home users don't need the extra features and all that Office 2000 and Office XP include. Besides, most of time you will find Office 97 cheaper than Office 2000 or Office XP. The other thing is that Office 97 gives you less B* S* (such as Internet Explorer 6 *MUST* be installed and *MUST* be set as your default browser). I'm not sure if Office 2000 or XP can be installed on Windows 98 (it can't be installed on Windows 95 for sure since Microsoft - along with other companies - don't even support it).

I DON'T KNOW ANY, but the other way would be to find a WAREZ site on the internet and download the whole CD in .zip, .rar, or .iso format which can be opened in WinZip, WinRAR, or WinImage. You might need serial number to use it (during or after install).

Actually, Office 2000 installs and works perfectly fine on Windows 95. Furthermore, it only needs Internet Explorer 4 or higher.

However, if you are look for a Viewer for Power Point Presentations try:
PowerPoint Viewer 97 (2002 Release) at http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/2002...2/ppView97.aspx

(Note that it only allows you to view presentations, it doesn't allow you to create or modify them.)

Also ftp.microsoft.com/Softlib/MSLFILES/
Ppview97.exe PowerPoint Viewer 97

I don't think Office 97 requires IE at all (maybe IE 3.02, which should be installed on Win95 anyway). BTW don't ever install IE4 on Win95, if you do you might as well just upgrade to Win98.

Office 97 includes IE 3.02 for Win95. Office 97 will not make an attempt to install it, but an icon for it is placed on the desktop (even if you have a higher version of IE) that can be safely deleted.

P.S. What I hate most is during the installation of Microsoft Encrata Reference Suite 99, it makes an attempt to install IE 4 without your consent. If you have IE 5 (or greater) you get an error message that says something about your system clock being wrong and the installation couldn't finish.

I use IE 6.
