I'm having this problem too - partially. Vista Ultimate, Office 2007
Ulitmate, and Office Sharepoint Designer 2007. Actually, for me the only
app that is doing this is Designer. Everything works, and there are no
messages in the event log that seem to have any relevance at all. It's just
that every damned time I start up Deisnger it goes into Office
Configuration.

BTW, I have NO pre-2007 Office applications installed.

I've been combing the NGs for hints about this and nobody ever seems to find
a resolution other than to completely reinstall Vista. Not what I'd call an
attractive alternative.

Hi,

Go to your application Event log, you should see some warnings related
to MSIEXEC that coincide with the exact time you see the
re-configuration problem.

Post the messages here as plain text.

Thanks for the suggestion, Gerry.

First, I was getting a message says that the registry key
"'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.web\" does not exist, but it DOES. First, the messages
that I was getting a little while ago.

This message says "Detection of product

Now as I mentioned, the registry key does exist. So I checked the
permissions and I explicitly added myself as a full-control user. Then I
restarted the app, it went through setup again. I allowed setup to complete
and the app to start and then I shut it down. Then restarted it, and now
the Windows Installer portion of the setup is no longer starting, but the
Office Configuration is still coming up after the Designer splash screen.
The event log no longer has warning messages issued...just ones confirming
that setup ran:

I have looked in the registry, and .pip exists but can't be opended.
when I try to open .pipe I get an error message ".pip cannot be opend, an
error is preventing this key from being opend. Details: access is denied."
and I can only press "ok", I have also looked at the event viewer and
there is no info about not being able to open .pip.
thanks

I may have found a fix, but I haven't tried it, I solved the problem by
taking the long way around about 2 days ago, I reinstalled xp and loaded
office 2007 then upgraded to vista ultimate.
but what I found that may work (someone please try and let me know)
go to: control pannel administrator tools local security policies,
expand it and go to security options, then at the top(in the right pane) you
will see "accounts: administrator account status" - it is set by default to
disabled so enable it then you may need to restart your PC.
hopefully this works
I stumbled onto this while trying to change the vista login screen to
classic.

Edo,
you can try (this is the long way around fix):
NOTE: back up what ever data you want to keep, just incase vista descides to
over write it instead of placing in the c:/windows.old directory.
preform an upgrade from what you have to home premium (which I Know uill
let you install office, ane it will work right), then from home premium,
after you finish your install of office, then upgrade again to your Vista
bussiness.
Yes You will probably need to find a serial # for home premium, if the key
you currently have does not give you a list after entring the key displaying
all 64 bit versions of vista asking which one you want to install. note, you
do not need to activate it ( it probably won't let you activate , but you
will be able to at least get office installed and working proporly then you
just upgrade to your liscenced vision of vista.
I don't know why Ms Has this problem with certin vista releases and don't
have a fix for it, leaving every one who does have this problem to suffer
through it..

I had a similar issue and fixed it by resetting permissions for the
