Install upgrade version of Office 2007
Hi Rich,
There's a bug in Works 9 in some installations that keep it from being recognized. This article has an update that should help solve that for you. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/943290/en-us?FR=1 =========== "Rich E" wrote in message ...

Install upgrade version of Office 2007
I also recently purchase a computer with Works 9.0 on it and can not install the upgrade to Office Small Business 2007. I tried to fix the error with the Works 9.0 download but do not have a disk for the .msi file. Am I missing something because the Office product states the upgrade is compatible with Works as long as I use the download which will not download to my computer. -Sharon -- armyedelen ------------------------------------------------------------------------ armyedelen's Profile: http://www.officehelp.in/members/8377/armyedelen View this thread: http://www.officehelp.in/1851040/ins...-office-2007-a http://www.officehelp.in |

Hi Sharon,
You didn't mention the name of the .MSI filebut as a guess, it would be part of the original installation CD/image for Works. There may have been some corruption in the MS Works installation. That can sometimes occur from using registry/cleanup utilities on the computer. Some computers include a compressed version of the software provided and a provision to create your own backup CDs to be used to install. Check with the computer supplier to see if that's the case. ===== "armyedelen" wrote in message ...

Install upgrade version of Office 2007
I know this question doesn't apply to what has been happening in this post,
yet I am desperate... I am trying to upgrade from an earlier version of office to MS Office 2007. The 'new' Dell system (less than 1 year old) is crashing the installation with the an event number 11708, found in the Event Viewer. I have researched everywhere for a fix! I have updated the iWindows installer to version 3.1.400.4039, stopped all services and startup services in mscofig. Nothing is working! Anyone care to help? |
