Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 Setup Errors

Hello,

I am having trouble uninstalling Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007 from
my newly purchased laptop.

When I first uninstalled this program, my laptop unexpectedly restarted,
forcing the uninstallation process of Microsoft Office Home and Student 2007
to close. When my computer came back on, I went back to uninstall Microsoft
Office Home and Student 2007 again. However, I encountered a 'setup errors'
message that states, "This product installation has been corrupted. Run setup
again from the CD, DVD, or other original installation source" when trying to
uninstall.

The problem is that I do not have a CD or DVD to repair Office 2007 because
the program was already in my computer when I purchased my laptop. What
should I do to fix the corrupt installation files?
--
Thank you.

Allthough if this is a new PC you could use the recover option to set it
back to factory defaults, then uninstall Office - but then why did it
restart, maybe theres a problem with your new PC?
