Have you moved the program files from their original locations? I seem to
recall a problem with iWork '08 (yes, I know that's from Apple) that gave an
almost identical error message. moving the files back to whatever locations
they had been installed to originally helped. Might be worth a shot...

The Installer does not support updating an application in a location other
than a bootable partition. You will need to move the application back to a
bootable partition get the updater to work. You can move it back after
updating. (This is a Apple installer function.)

The updater will only update the RTM version. You should check the
MicrosoftComponentPlugin.framework and the applications should be 12.0.0
(071130) (European build numbers could be different)

If the updater fails or says it cannot find a version of Office that needs
updating, then reboot and try again.

Apply the latest Apple Combo updater. It will overwrite files that might
have become corrupt.

Remember to restart after updating and run Repair Permissions
