Access 2007 widards crash

[Fidel]

A while ago I installed Office 2003 on 2 terminal servers (W2K3 SP1). On both
servers none of the Access wizards worked. Even the local admin i used to
install Office with, crashes Access every time I start any wizard. Everything
else in office works fine. Yesterday I upgraded to Office 2007 (which removed
office 2003) and I get the same issue. I tried the diagnostics (didn't find
anything wrong), installed the latest Office updates, relaxed security on
some office folders, cursed a few times, but nothing helps... Access just
crashes and in the event log I find event id 1000, faulting application
msaccess.exe... Somtimes event id 1001, Bucket <number> faulting application
msaccess.exe...faulting module unknown. Since this happens on both machines,
I don't think a re-install will solve this. Maybe a Terminal Server issue?
anyone? please?

Have you tried searching the Knowledge Base
http://support.microsoft.com/search/?adv= choosing Access 2003 and
terminal server brings up 20 articles some of which could be very
relevant. In particular http://support.microsoft.com/kb/828955/en-us
talks about installing Office 2003 on TS.

FWIW my understanding is that you need some kind of special corporate
licensing to install Access 2007 on a Terminal Server system.

I did find a lot of articles in the knowledge base but none of them seem to
be related to my problem. The Office Professional versions I installed are
part of our Volume License agreement, so that can't be the problem either.
