Office 2007 Pro will not install: Error installing
I tried about 100 times to install Office 2007 Pro. I installed from a OEM
Disk and it validated but when needing to run the repair feature from ADD REMOVE in XP the message said there was an error occurred and can not install. I tried using the free download from MS and I thought that would install but no luck. I ran an xp repair and after that nightmare, I still can't get the installation in. I put in the Product Code and it starts but only 3 minutes later I get the error that I listed above. Now what can I do? I was told to do a fresh xp install but I'll do with out if that is what I have to do. Office xp is working fine on this PC. I have done everything I can get my hands on from Knowledge Base but nothing works. I'm not new to this but this is crazy.

Office 2007 Pro will not install: Error installing
The error is the same every time. "Office 2007 Professional encountered a
problem and is unable to install" Even the free trail Office 2007 Pro starts to install and then stops. I used MS Knowlege Base and found all the poop on removing the suite's folders and registry and it took forever. Still same problem. The program installed once and when I tried to add features is when this happened. So I put office xp back on so I had something to use. I tryed removing Office XP completely, NightMare. And loading Office 2007 Pro from my OEM disk, and same error and stall every time. What the F? "DL" wrote: Do I take it you want to install Office 2007 in parallel with OfficeXP?

Office 2007 Pro will not install: Error installing
OKAY ALL YOU HAVING THIS ISSUE, HERE IS THE ONLY WAY I FOUND THAT WORKS.
You have to uninstall Office 2007 prosessional by yourself in pieces. MS has a link to do this, too bad the programmers didn't do it for us. http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/928218 "Flysortie" wrote: The error is the same every time.

Office 2007 Pro will not install: Error installing
Hi I found this and started wading through it but unfortunately some of the files and folders that routine implies should be there (the ones that do not say 'if') were not present. I think even this will turn out to be a waste of time. I am going to rollback to what I think was a previously good working image of my system but how do I prevent this happening again. Do we know (Does MS know) what the cause is? -- kevvyb ------------------------------------------------------------------------ kevvyb's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/kevvyb.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/office-setup/1073923.htm http://forums.techarena.in

Office 2007 Pro will not install: Error installing
Well, forget about everything I said before. The only way I was able to
install office pro 2007, was to do a clean install of the xp os and reload everything. It took care of all my problems. It wasn't that bad. If you're having this same problem, take a weekend and do it.
