|| Hello,
||
|| System is running Windows Xp Professional. System was running
|| perfectly fine till this Thursday. I'm running the Complete
|| Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 software suite.
||
|| Problem started on Friday morning. Clicked on Outlook icon and the
|| box came
|| up stating to install software. I prompted throught the screens and
|| it errored out with the following:
||
|| Part 1:
||
|| Microsoft Office Outlook has not been installed for the current user.
|| Please run setup to install the application.
||
|| Part 2:
||
|| The windows installer service could not be accessed. This can occur
|| if you
|| are running windows in safe mode or if the windows installer is not
|| correctly
|| installed. Contact your support personnel for assistance.
||
||
|| I have tried everything that I have found online and nothing is
|| working for
|| me.

||
|| I'm a bit upset at the issue at hand. I'm getting tired of having
|| these kind of problems with Microsoft Products. So at this point
|| I'm unable to access anything from the Microsoft office suite. I've
|| tired to download the
|| latest windows installer program but every time I do it says that
|| what is currently on my machine is newer that what I'm loading and
|| it exits out.
||
|| Help! I'd like to get this back up and running ASAP.
||
