Why didn't microsoft word and windows media player automatically install on my compuet?

Question

okay so i bought a HP computer, it's new and really good, the only problem is that ive put in the cd it comes with and that doesnt install anything. There's only three software options and one is a screen check so the other two aree the only installations, one is only for adobe reader 8, the other didnt install any programs that my other windows xp computers did. I can't get microsoft word or anything similar to it by windows, and windows media player wasnt installed like it should've been, and all the other programs meant for it arent on here except microsoft silverlight. HELP AND NO STUPID **** ANSWERS.

Answer 1

Microsoft Word is part of Microsoft Office. It has never been part of Windows. Most computer manufacturers don't install it by default since it adds more than $100 to the cost of the machine. Some do, but they generally have to be custom ordered online. If you want Word, you have to buy MS Office. You can also try OpenOffice, which is a free, legal, open source office suite that has similar functionality.



This mostly comes down to choices made by HP.
