Hi, I have just got a new laptop and installed Office 2007 enterprise edition on it. I used ccclaner and revo unitaller to completely remove all traces of pre installed office. I have even used windows clean up installer to remove all traces of office.
'The installation ran smoothly but when I try to open Word or any other office app, it pops up a little installer and then says There is not enough memory or hard disk space to run..' whatever program I am trying to use.
I have got a intel core 2, 4 gig ram and 300 gig space. How is this possible?
I have tried completely re installing/unistalling it many times, have even tried the the repair option and run as administrator but still the problem persists. Please help!
There is a service running or startup item that is interfering with Office..
Try typing msconfig in the start command and disable items one at a time to see the culprit.
Before diabling anything that might be important google the startup item and see if it is needed.
Testimonial: "Good, very helpful."
Glad to hear.

Yes. It is a backup copy of my original disk. My original disk has got a crack on the disk so it is now unreadable/unplayable. Lucky I made a backup copy when I purchased it.
Also forgot to mention that I have tried running in safe mode and all office applications run in safe mode. In normal mode, it still doesn't run.
I have just reinstalled ms office again. Somehow the low memory/hard disk space pop up screen has vanished. Now when I click on word or any other office app, it runs different kinds of set up screens (including configuring application, which looks similar to office installion screen), before going in word or whatever. When finally done, a pop up appears in front of MS Word and says something like' Word has not been installed for the following user. Please run setup to install the program'. When I click the 'OK' button, the application completely closes.
Whats going on? Is this because I have got a 64 bit version of vista? I have got the same program installed on my PC and my other laptop. They both have 32 bit version of Vista. Office works fine on those machines. Could it be this as well?
I'm at loss here. Can't believe this crap!
BTW, still runs fine in safe mode.
Done it! It's working now! Thank God!
All I did was, I went to the actual folder where Office is installed (C:\Programs Fles (x86)\Microsoft Office\Office12) and right clicked all the .exe files to change the compatibility mode from properties. I gave them all 'Run this program as Administrator' from the Privilege Level.
I had to delete the program folder from my start menu as it was going to the pre installed program which I already deleted. I had to make a new folder. A bit of a hassle but worth it. I had to drag all the shortcuts to this folder and rename them so that I can select it from my start menu. The UAC pops up when I select Word or other. A bit annoying but I can live with that. I was told this is not recommended anyway to turn UAC off for old programs.
Hopefully that this method with also help others who do not want to mess things up.
Is this genuine?
