This is because the template of word2003 is damaged, which makes word unable to start normally. Delete the Normal.dot template file, and WORD2003 will automatically re-create a good template file, and the problem can be solved.

That is, delete the c: \ documents and settings \ user name \ application data \ Microsoft \ templates \ normal.dot file.

To find the Normal.dot template file, you need to set it to "Show the contents of system folders" and "Show all files and folders", and uncheck "Hide protected operating system files" in folder options.
