Office 2007 Installation Hangs At 70 Percent On Windows 7 64bit
Jun 25, 2011
I just bought a Toshiba laptop that has Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit installed on it. I have tried several times to install Office 2007 but for whatever reason it gets probably about 70 percent done and then it just hangs. At first I thought it was because the CPU sitting at 80-90 percent even before installing. I found some .NET services that were using up alot of that CPU so I disabled them and tried installing again but I still hung. I am getting no error messages so right now I am at a loss.
MS Office 2007 Professional will not install. It does not get past the splash screen 'Setup is preparing the necessary files', but hangs. The summary error message in Event Viewer is as follows:
The device, DeviceCDRom0, has a bad block.
The program installed quite happily on my old Windows XP Pro computer, and the DVD drive is able to read other installation discs, so it doesn't seem to be a hardware problem.
Best Buy lost my copy of MS Office 2003 professional Edition 2 years ago. They gave me MS Office Professional 2007 Upgrade and installed it for on my computer. My computer's hard drive has failed and I purchased a new one yesterday. I need to know how to install my MS Office Prof 2007 Upgrade without a previous version installed on the new PC. There must be a way since Best Buy did this for me last time.
Just bought a new laptop with Windows7 64bit installed-my first exposure to Windows7. I had Office 2007 installed on my old Dell 32 bit machine. I had also recently pruchased Office 2010 and installed that on my new machine.Now, when I try to open those 32bit 2007 files with 64bt 2011, Iget an error message that "no picture file is available", or words to that effect. When I try to "open with", the only option displayed is "Microsoft Office" with an icon that looks like a picture file. When I try to browse to the proper office program(Excel, for example), there are none of teh Office suite programs displayed, only "Microsoft Office".I can navigate seperately to the proper progran, Excel, etc., and drag the file into the application, and it opens, and all seems to work OK. I "save as" the proper application file, but it still will not open with double-click on the file name.
My Mom has an HP laptop. She recently purchased a new HP printer and I have been trying for the last 4 days to get it to install/connect. I've been in touch with HP but the links they provide aren't resolving the issues. First, using the CD that came with the printer: hangs up at around 85-90%. It doesn't not show up as installed. I copied the CD to the desktop, modified Setup.exe in CFFExplorer and Run as Administrator and it appears to completely install; however, when I go to Device Manager, it says no driver is found.
I sometimes have the option to update and sometimes that seems to work but I can't access it through Add a Printer (which has the green bar run across the top, then pulsate and freeze). Trying to install using the driver I download from HP results in no installing screen appearing but it does hang up in the background and the only way to stop it is to Restart. The same thing happens if I try to use HPs Wizard. I've installed several HP printers through the years and not had this much trouble. That doesn't even include the dozens of times I've had to reinstall my own HP printer because of its contrariness!
Additionally, attempts to uninstall the old printer results in it hanging up/freezing soon in to the process, whether I try to uninstall from the Start menu, file or Uninstall program. I'm not even being able to get the Windows Updates to install - that process also just hangs up/freezes. I've not checked her machine in a while so there are many updates; however, when I just choose 1 at a time, it still sits at 0% and never moves. The printer, when connected, is with the USB and I've tried all 4 USB ports on this just in case. Am still in touch with HP but they are sending me the usual links so I'm hoping perhaps someone here can think of something a little less ordinary!
I now have a new problem, before I managed to open 2007 files by opening Office 2010 and then from inside the application choosing to open a file. The problem I have though is if I just try to open an Office 2007 file then I can't open it, and I can't change the default program to open it. How do you get Office 2010 to open all the Office 2007 files such as word, excel etc?
I've recently got a new machine and had copied my old PST file over. Whenever I go to open it I get "File access is denied. You do not have the permission required to access the file C:Users*username*DocumentsOutlook Files*pst file name*"I created a test archive and was able to open that one (same location ) just fine.
My new computer came with Office 2010 Starter installed. I believe I activated it. Then I installed my last legal version of Office Home 2007. Now neither one seems to be working properly. I probably should have uninstalled 2010 prior to installing 2007. How do I remove 2010 without screwing up 2007?
I have Win 7/Pro 64 bit, i5 processor, 8 GB RAM.I purchased the 64 bit version of Microsoft Office (via download). Why does the Windows Update list updates to the 32 bit version of Office? Is there any reason to install (or not install) these updates?
I have 6GB of ram installed on windows 7 64-bit ultimate. For some reason I'm noticing that the usage will rise past 50%, but I am unable to find all of the used resources. From what I found, I'm using roughly 3.2GB of RAM when I add up all the memory usage under the processes tab.
Has anyone tried installing office 2000 after windows 7 install followed by office 2007 upgrade? I know there is a compatibility issue with office 2000, but will the upgrade still work?
I have just got Windows 7 Ultimate.I accept the Licence Agreement, set my partitions as i want them but when it gets to the expanding files part it will hang at 0%. This happens on both the 32 & 64 bit disc.This is a brand new purchase which I opened it about an hour ago.The laptop has a 400GB HD and 2GB of ram. It came with Home Prem x64 pre-installed, So the hardware meets the requirements.What seems to be the problem?
I am rebuilding my system (Dell vostro 410 desktop) after a hard drive crash and installation of a new hard drive. Did a clean install of windows 7 professional 32 bit. Office 2007 will not fully install, excel and power point install cleanly, word will not install properly. I get a notice that installation was successful but when I attempt to open word the program hangs up at the word logo. I can get out by using task manager. I have tried to uninstall and reinstall using control panel. I have used revo uninstall to try a more complete uninstall. I have tried uninstall on the office installation disc. Nothing works. I suspect a corrupted fragment in registry but do not know how to deal with that. I do not feel comfortable mucking about in registry myself.
In about a week, I will be starting my own intro to Windows 7.
It is an enforced introduction as my XP m/c failed on Saturday. I know that I will have some software issues with Photoshop CS2 for example but I am hoping that Office 2007 works OK.
i recently had to do a repair re-install on my toshiba qosmio G50. 32 bit windows 7 ultimate. after completion i noticed my windows office pro plus 2007 was not working. after trying to sort it out i thought the only option was to un install it from control panel then re-install.i then got this message.error 1321.setup. cannot modify the file C:program filescommon filesmicrosoft sharedOFFICE12culturesOFFICE.ODF. verify that the file exists in your system and you have sufficient permissions to update it. so i went into forums and followed recommended instructions.i did the microsoft fixit link , but still no go then tried to delete every file connected to office through the registry editor method biut still no go tried a clean boot, then tried installing but again no joy.
install office 2007 on windows 7 64 bit. I have source in my disk drive and works fine with windows 7 32 bit. But while installing the same on 64 bit it says "setup could not find any available products to install. Please Contact your system administrator"
I want to install office 2007 on MS Windows 7 home edition 64-bit. Do I need to have a 64 bit office 2007 softwa? in other words can I use the tsame office 2007 I normally use on windows 7 32-bit?
