    You could try the free open office suites. These are working very well for me with Win7. . You may have to install java to get all the features.

    when i open a file in word
    Is it Word or Wordpad? The thread title says Wordpad.
    If you open a word docx etc. in Wordpad it will look all gibberish.
    Have your file associations been changed?

    Sorry, yes wordpad. Dont know if any file associations have been changed (maybe). My four yr old got to my pc and since then its been like this.
    Everything I open in wordpad looks gibberish.

    Can you do a system restore to a time prior to little fingers tampering?
