>> || 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.
>> ||
>> || kb=898512
>> || kb=324516
>> ||
>> ||
>> || 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.
>> ||
>> || Bob
