Default Office 2007 SP1 - unable to install

I managed to fix it and identify the issue. The issue is that only trusted
installer (a new vista service) can install to certain protected registry
keys... Now, I tried to repair the keys for admin then stopped and restored a
backup thinking that was the wrong way to go. I de-installed office,
re-installed it, and Sp1 went fine first go with no fight. Sooo the moral of
the story is that it is linked to either a bad install or a bad hotfix along
the way. simply remove, reinstall and woila.. works fine...

I hope this helps ;0

Can we manage it without re installing the office?

Hi Nico,

If you place the Office 2007 CD in the drive you used for installation and install SP1 do you still get the 78F error?

Put in your Office 2007 install CD into your CD\DVD-ROM and try installing SP1 with the Office 2007 CD in the computers CD\DVD drive. Post back with result

I got my CD from the launch and now I can't find it. So I guess I'm
out of luck here.

I'm sorry but it gives me the same error. In addition, I also repair the
Office and reintsall the SP1 and anyway, the error is there.

Hi Bob,

Finally, I got SP1 installed. I reinstall Office 2007 because it was
presinstalled in my computer and I would say it was the problems.

Thanks for your help

Nico

Try placing *any* CD in the drive, and post back to let us know whether that
worked.

It has to be the Office CD. Since the SP1 will call on this Office Install CD no other CD will do
