Failure to Install Office Ultimate 2007
Thanks, DL, for the link. I have already browsed the site but cannot contact
them til later in the day (it's only about 12:45 AM there right now) to see if that will be my salvation in this matter.

Failure to Install Office Ultimate 2007
Hi there
Sorry if this is a dumb question but here goes. I've got the same problems as those previously mentioned but I did take up the option of the dvd and it's on the way. My question is do I need to completely uninstall all of office 2000 before installing office 2007 ultimate?

Failure to Install Office Ultimate 2007
Hi there, thanks for your help. I actually kept reading last night to try
again to understand why the exe file kept failing. Eventually I did one thing I read and all was fixed. All I needed to do was download a freebie download manager program and downloaded the office 2007 ultimate exe file from digital river. It downloaded quite quickly and successfully installed!!! Came across the problem of NOT creating a new Profile in Outlook but fixed that after trying a couple of different suggestions ... ie. creating a new profile and deleting the default.

I've got the same problems as those previously mentioned but I did take up the option of the dvd and it's on the way. My question is do I need to completely uninstall all of office 2000 before installing office 2007 ultimate? Thanks so much for your help. regards Pam "DL" wrote: Take the option to pay extra for the dvd, no doubt you will need it at a later stage "pearberry009" wrote in message ... did you ever get yours to work? i am having the same problem and i have no clue what to do. the only difference is i am just directly trying to download it from the net through the ultimate steal program and it says download failed with no other information. i have tried contacting them several times and they just keep telling me to turn off virus protection and what not. any other advice would be great thanks.

DL, I have contacted DigitalRiver but do not hold out much hope for afirmative reply. Is the a way to get this directly from Mocrosoft that you know of? I can supply information on proof of purchase.

I've ever used the actual Office cd, and not the download files. It would appear to me that either the actual download files are corrupt, or that the burn operation corrupted the ones on cd. I think the only thing I can offer, assuming you dont have the actual download files stored on a PC, is that you try logging on to Digital River to see if the option to purchase the actual Office disk is still available. "TheRalpher" wrote in message ... Oh, DL, I'm sorry that I forgot to include the answers to your questions. Yes, other CD's have been installed on this computer but none recently. And the other PC that had this installed was from another CD-there were two purchases of the same program offer for two different PC's, That way I got two key codes and didn't have to go through the hassle of buying a second key code.

I believe some Dell's are supplied with certain cd/dvd utilities which run on start-up & could be causing a conflict. (Presumably other cd's install successfully on this PC?) "TheRalpher" wrote in message ... This was a disc burned with the files downloaded from the MS Store via store.digitalriver.com. There were 2 purchases for 2 computers and the other one loaded/installed w/o problem. TheRalpher "DL" wrote: Was this disk supplied by MS, or was it one you created from a download file? If the latter then I suspect either the download file was corrupt, or whatever means you used to create/burn this cd was faulty "TheRalpher" wrote in message ... I had posted this some time back but had problems getting back to get the answer(s), if any. I have a CD of a download of the Ultimate Steal-MS Office Ultimate 2007. When I attempt to install it, I get the message "The installation package failed." No codes, explanation, whatever. I'm running Dell Dimension E521 w/Vista Premium w/SP1 (32-bit). I have 1GB Ram, 300GB HHD (288 free), AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 33600+ w/1.9GHz clock speed. I have had this disc the better part of a year and have never been able to install it. I can't get any help from MS because I haven't yet installed it so it can be registered. . |
