Message: [QUOTE="Bob Buckland ?:-\), post: 7150505"] Hi Oliver, If you use Ctrl+Alt+Del to bring up the Windows Task Manager how many instances of MSIExec are listed as running? Do you have any software such as antivirus running when uninstalling? ========== When trying to uninstall 2003 Office Beta, I receive a error dialog box saying "Windows Installer Terminated Prematurely". Clicking OK on that dialog, displays another which says "The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread or an application request." I have no other programs running when trying to uninstall. I have checked MS FAQ, Newsgroups, etc and found out that a virus could cause this behaviour. I have used the latest MacAfee and determined that I do NOT have a virus. Another suggested solution had me download the 2.0 version of Windows Installer, which would not execute with XP Pro. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. >> [/QUOTE]
