Office 12 (2007) Applications fail with Vista

[Bill Billmire]

Running Vista (build 5308) and installing Office 2007 Professional (All Apps).
After office installs, I select one of the apps (say Outlook), the system
seems to be attemping to start the app but then fails - with the following
error message...

"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will notify
you if a solution is available." Only option is a "Close program" button.

Going into Event Viewer, and selecting the Error (with the appropriate Date
and Time stamp), there is Event ID: 1000. The details of the event are:

"Faulting application OUTLOOK.EXE, version 12.0.4017.1006, time stamp
0x445b7cf7, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000,
exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x00000000, process id 0xcd0,
application start time 0x01c67f5437014bd0."

Any suggestions???

Thanks in advance...

As I understand it, office 2007 will only work with beta 2 (build 5381 or
higher).

This WEB Site...
http://www.microsoft.com/office/preview/beta/sysreq.mspx

With the following heading...
2007 Microsoft Office Release System Requirements (Updated: May 23, 2006)

Delineates the following...
Note: 2007 Microsoft Office system Beta 2 programs are supported on Windows
Vista Beta 2 (when available), and not earlier versions of Windows Vista.

Vista build 5308 is Beta 2 - Requirements appear to me met.

Should work...

I'm not sure where you got the info beta versions of Vista, but when I check
the site 5308 is February's CTP and 5384 is Beta 2. Hopefully that solves
it. I'm not running Vista though, since my VPN client doesn't support it

OK - I picked up build 5384, I'll install it and see if my issue(s) go away.
The CTP build (5308) actually calls itself "Beta 2" bottom-right, above the
time in systray.
