I have an NT4 workstation that for some reason when you try and launch Word the splash screen is displayed but then it kicks right out.

Any help would be appreciated.
 
Try this: click the Start button in the bottom left of your screen, select Run, and type winword.exe /a. Does Word open ok now? If it does, you've likely got template correuption. Find and rename Normal.dot to Normal.tod or something like that. Restart and start Word normally.
