Office 2010 beta broken links

[Blue Seahorse Syndicate]

Dear Exoert -

I just installed Office 2010 beta on my new Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit OS.
The 'Send Us a Smile' link does not work. I see also that my Outlook link
does not work and that the repair function in the Office 2010 program
does not repair it. I see also that my 32-bit browser now does not
launch. I note that I could not launch Windows Media Player from the Taskbar
but I removed it and replaced it from the Start Menu and now it works.

I am thinking that I must repair the 32-browser and try the Office 2010
repair function again. Am I going to need to use the repair function
(repair the OS at the beginning of installing) for the OS on the installation
disk or is there an easier method?

Am I going about repairing the links in the correct manner?

Have you tried rebooting after installing the beta on your TEST machine?
