Vista 5308 / Office 2007 Beta2 work OK together ?

Hi I am Vince and I just started using Vista build 5384-2 and I am having a
problem with loading office 2007 says the certificate is no good whats up
with that. Are they going to wait for the release before we can test office
2007. Also IE7b2 doesn't work eather.

I've used Vista 5308 for a while and I just now downloaded/installed Office
2007 beta 2.
From available Office 2007 downloads, I chose and installed:
Office Pro
Outlook Business Contact Mgr
One Note
Project

I did not "register for support" after any of the apps installed. I rebooted
before trying any apps ( figuring I'd then register) and when I try to run
any of them I get an error and a popup asking if I'd like to send an error
report to MSFT. I don't know / it doesn't tell me what the error is , BUT
in Control Panel - Solutions - it does say that it is a known error and will
be fixed in the next release. Am I on Candid Camera ? My download is 2 hours
old and it's a KNOWN bug and will be fixed Next time - No office app even
STARTS ( yes i'm yelling at my PC) !!!

Perhaps Office 2007 Beta and Vista Beta don't work together ?
Although I thought that THAT was the whole idea ? I sent them this text as
feedback. Any suggestions to get this going ? I'm off to look for answers
( someplace other than MSFT website which doesn't offer me any solution).

I'm running 5384 (from CD, don't know about '-2'; don't know what that is)
IE7b2 is working fine. I've downloaded OfficeProPlus, VisioPro, ProjectPro,
OneNote and BCM. (Don't plan to use BCM.) OfficeProPlus and VisioPro both
extracted, loaded, authenticated and run fine. Can't get ProjectPro or
OneNote to extract from either a USB 20M Archer or 1G stick; go through the
motions on double-click but never start the extraction process. All work
fine on an XPSP2 Sony VAIO laptop across the room using the same disk setups.


Guess I'll copy them to the Vista hard drive and try it that way.

Overall I'm very pleased with all the improvements.

I copied them to the Document folder and both of them extracted, loaded,
authenticated and are working great so I have a work-around!!

Now onward and upward to networking. I have a SOHO network of 7 machines
here at the house; all XPSP2 systems.

I'm really happy with what I see so far. Keep you posted!!

If you are using this beta on a production network at home and are running a
business, PLEASE make backups of your vital information NOW. Remember, this
is Beta software and is not meant for running production environments and is
not stable. Your information and files can be corrupted anytime and there
is no guarantee they can be recovered. Additionally, you may be required to
format your computers before the release version is available.

Just a warning.

Thanks for the warning. The key to my scenario is the statement "XPSP2
machines". They are the actual production systems; the Vista
machine/environment merely runs alongside for comparison purposes.
