I can't uninstall apps shown on Add/Remove programs nor can I update to SP2
for Office 2007. Same error code 2203. This has been going on for quite a
while.

Using Vista Ultimate. I'm willing to completely re-install Vista but have
issues I think because I started out with XP with free upgrade to Vista Home.
Then I purchased the upgrade to Vista Ultimate. So I don't have a new
installation version of Vista to install as new. Same would apply to Office
2007: I only have the upgrade CD. Help!

How can I fix the uninstall/install/2203 problem? (The supposed fix for
Windows Installer also fails with the same error code) Or alternatively, how
can I do a complete new install of Vista Ultimate and Office 2007?
 
I'm running as Administrator.

Try logging on as admin to install/uninstall stuff.

I've seen this problem first hand as well as in a multitude of reports
from others. Google and you will find them. There are some suggested
fixes but in my (friend's) case, only a reload cured it.
