Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
Bob
I burnt the downloaded ISO to CDR and have tried running it from both the CD and by copying it to a folder on my HDD and running from there too. I now have 6 CDs burnt and all verified. I'm leaning towards this being a Vista problem and I think I'll post this in a Vista NG now. Terry "Bob Buckland ?:-)" 75214.226(At Beautiful Downtown)compuserve.com wrote in message ... Hi Terry, Are you running setup from a folder that you extracted the contents to, or are you mounting the .ISO for Office and running setup from there, or ??? =========== "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ... Bob I've uninstalled OneCare and tried yet another download - still same abort as soon as Setup tries. There is still no log file. I am at the point where I am going back to Windows XP and Office 2003. terry -- Bob Buckland ?:-) MS Office System Products MVP *Courtesy is not expensive and can pay big dividends* |

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
Terry/all,
I get the same error on both Windows XP and Windows Vista, so I'm thinking it is a Office 2007 issue. -- RIP Will Rogers once observed that the only difference between death and taxes is that death never got worse while Congress was in session.

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
Yes. I've tried on 2 other computers, one with a fresh install of Vista
Ultimate (nothing else was installed, just Vista, no updates or anything to ensure that there were no other influences) and an XP PC. All failed at exactly the same error about one second after the Office Setup window appears. I too conclude that Office 2007 has a serious bug OR the MSDN version is corrupt.

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
I am getting this error also. I have tried:
1. Installing from CD (I also downloaded twice and cut multiple CDs and verified hash #s) to a virgin install of Vista Ultimate 2. Installing from CD to a version of XP x64 running Office 2003 Pro but that never had any betas of Office running on it. Terry Farrell wrote: Yes.

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
Latest news: I believe there is a problem with the way that Vista is
'burning' the ISO. I'm making enquiries and hope to have an answer tomorrow morning. Terry Farrell "Terry Farrell" wrote in message ... Thanks for that extra Info.

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
Hi,
"Don Awalt" wrote: I just logged in to say the same thing. I unpacked the ISO with WinRAR, and setup ran fine! just wanted to second that: I downloaded and burnt the ISO twice using Nero 7, and got the error Philip reported. Then I used 7-zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) to extract the contents of the ISO into a local folder and ran setup.exe from there -- and it all works just fine. Operating system: Windows XP Pro. So it has probably to do with the way the ISO is structured (?), not with Vista. Best regards Christian |

Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message
I'm not sure if this is the way that they are packed or it is a Vista
problem. I moved the ISO file to my Windows XP machine and burnt it to CD and it worked. Both the new Windows Vista installation and the Windows XP machines are using identical Nero 7.5 (latest version) and identical LGE DVD burners: this makes me think it is a Vista problem rather than the ISO. However, the good news is that we now know the problem and Office 2007 has installed fine. Thanks for everyone's contribution.
