It is mostly caused that the current user account doesn't have permission on the Office registry key. Follow the steps below to see if it works.
#1
========
Login as a local administrator account on the computer.
Start the Microsoft office 2007 applications (word 2007, excel 2007, powerpoint 2007).
If the configuration pops up, wait it to be finished.
Logoff and logon your user account. Test the issue. What is the result?
If it doesn't work, go to next step.
