Angry Excel stopped working.

I am running Office 2000 on 64 bit windows 7 Home Premium which came on my Dell 560ST desktop which I purchased on 7/1/2011.
For the past few months, while using Excel, I get a pop-up window "Microsoft Excel for Windows has stopped working", the only option is to close program, then I get "Microsoft will let me know what the problem is.
I have removed and reinstalled Office at least 5 times but always get the same pop-up with the same results. Most of the time if I hit save after I perform a function it will save my work, but sometimes the pop-up comes up while I am performing a function.
I am retired and don't use Excel very often, but when I do I really get frustrated.
I copied all my Excel worksheets to my 32 bit Windows laptop and so far have not had any problems.
I tried downloading the SP's for Office but I get a notice that the SP's are not acceptable.
For the little time I use Office I can't afford to purchase the newer Office software.
Is the 64 bit Windows 7 causing me the problem?
