All of that misery, including the fact that reinstalling doesn't fix the
problem, is caused by damage to a registry entry. Follow the instructions in
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/940791 to fix it.

While working on a Word 2007 document, Windows Vista spontaneously
began shutting down applications, installed automatic updates, and
rebooted the system. When I returned to Word, I could no longer
select text in a document by dragging through it with the mouse. I
can no longer change Word preferences.
When I close Word, I get the following message:
"Microsoft Office Word has stopped working. Check online for a
solution and close the program. Close the program." The program never
checks for online solutions.
In addition, I get the following detailed error message:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH
Application Name: WINWORD.EXE
Application Version: 12.0.6331.5000
Application Timestamp: 48fa27b4
Fault Module Name: mso.dll

Locale ID: 1033
Additional information about the problem:
LCID: 1033
Brand: Office12Crash
skulcid: 1033
I tried returning to the previous system restore point and then
eventually had to reinstall Office 2007, but Word still does not work.
Any help would be appreciated.
