Hi ape

Thank you for your feedback. I only had a chance to test today.

These files were not installed (and since Windows 2000 is 32bits they should
not be loaded anyway)

I added these to winnt\system32 and there was no change.

I later ran Dependency Walker 2.2.6 x86 which showed that LO required
functions in several libraries including KERNEL.DLL that could not be found.

Therefore LO 4.0.3.3 can not possibly work under Windows 2000 because of
these missing functions, regardless of having all MSVC libraries.

This makes it even more important that the installer checks the OS first, as
requested here

Cheers,
Pedro
