Office 2007 showing setup & configuration when opening any office

Hi,

I reinstalled my office 2007 enterprise on my vista home premium, now, when
i try to open any program the install goes into the setup & configuration
screen, it says "windows is configuring office 2007...", a setup bar goes by
for about 4-5 minutes, then the program opens, very frustrating. I also get
the error "stdole32.tlb" when opening excel.
I am already looking for about a week for a solution, and already tried
everything (deleting everything except register en reinstall, use setup clean
up util, installing 2003, installing 2007 in safe mode, logging in as
'administrator', install separatly, etc...) without succes:(
Please (someone) let me know if there is a solution for this issue.

Anyway, please report this BUG to microsoft, maybe then can write an article
on it or release a patch, as I believe lot of people (will) experience this
issue.

Thanks in advance

It would be easier if you reported it.
 
It is NOT a Vista bug!
Office installs perfectly in Vista
Uninstall it completely, then reinstall it.
And kindly STOP blaming Vista fror EVERYTHING!
 
I'm looking for a solution... not some whining reply
as you can READ I already tried the followingand I didn't say it's a Vista bug (which it probably is) but an office 2007
bug;
look on the office forums, lots of people are experiencing exactly the same
issue.
The only thing I want is solve the problem, can I ?
 
It seems that office setup hasn't managed to complete an installation task
from the first place and it is continually trying to finish the uncompleted
task. To monitor this, have a look at your event viewer under the setup
logs. There you will identify the exact cause.

I suspect that you have a bad cd. Try installing from another cd
 
its a user error. Duh!

Ok, and how can this user error be solved? I already treid installing under
different names and as administrator.

Thanks in advance
 
Thanks, i tried burning it on a cd-rom and installing it from that (instead
of mounting it with daemon tools) but the problem persists.
I had a look at the setup log but I can't make a lot of it... anyway at the
end it says:

Successfully installed package: EnterpriseWW path:C:\MSOCache\All
Users\{90120000-0030-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}-C\EnterpriseWW.msi
Showing completion dialog.
Reboot requested if needed.
No reboot is needed.
Catalyst execution finished: 04/28/2007 21:52:35. Return code: 0.
PERF: TickCount=1193189 Name=RunSetup Description=End function

maybe I can email you the setup log

Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance
 
Thanks, but i already tried reinstalling about 10 times (with uac on off,
safe mode, administrator, other cd, programs separatly, etc)

All suggestions welcome....
 
Laurens, try also the following (just suggesting, not promising):
1) Try to re-install with anti-virus disabled or uninstalled
2) Also give a try at MS Office07 Diagnostics (XP's Detect&Repair
replacement) found under help of any application. It helped me in some cases
even if it didn't detect errors.

Just curious,
1) do you have enough disk space on the drive where your MSOcache exists
(the same drive as office installation)
2) Have you tried to install it from that cd on another computer
successfully?
3) What language is your office?
 
"Anyway, please report this BUG to microsoft, maybe then can write an article

The words above are yours, cockhead.
Can't you read your writing; you said BUG
