Errors after copying to larger drive
I recently upgarded my hard drive and the Maxblast software copied the old drive to the new larger drive. Now when I start Word (or Excel) I get a Windows Installer - Preparing to Install box. Followed by Microsoft Office Word 11.0 - An error occurred and this feature is no longer functioning properly. Please run Setup and select repair to restore this app. I put in my Office Pro EE 2003 CD and Explorer opens up. I choose Setup and after a few actions it says, "This pacth package could not be opened. verify that the patch package exists and that you can access it..." Thanks for any help |

Office does not like to be copied from one hard drive to another,
because that is one method a software pirate might try in order to bypass the Office activation process. Download the Windows Installer Cleanup Utility from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=290301 and install it. Use the utility to delete the Windows Installer registry entry for Office 2003. Reboot. Uninstall Office 2003. Install Office 2003 from the original CD. DJHanson wrote: I recently upgarded my hard drive and the Maxblast software copied the old drive to the new larger drive.
