Re: 5 Updates would not installed (with error codes)

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



i Downloaded the fulfile versions and they did not install 'update could not
be applied'

i used the windows installer to remove it so i can reinstall it

i reinstalled it but at the end of the installation it was not successful.
saying there were installation problems and sent a report to Microsoft

i attempted to install it again and now my offical Office 2003 Proffessional
Edition Product ID has been locked out and now invalid. a Microsoft glich or
software bug with that rare error id caused this and now i got a dead
program. can not open MS Office documents nor launch the program from the
startmenu however if i go navigate winword (MS Word Access.exe or Excel etc
it it runs the program but with no product id.

i duplicated this in the Newsgroups for Office Update, Office, and Windows
Update
