The problem most likely is that there are still some remnants of the
previous installation embedded in the Registry. The Microsoft utilities
don't do a very good job of removing these. You can manually edit and purge
the Registry (very dangerous), or you can download a shareware program
called RegVac, which isn't perfect, but does a much better job than the MS
programs. For tips on editing the Registry you can do a Google search for
"Registry Hacks." There are also good instructions on editing the Registry
in the Symantec NAV knowledge base. Not directly relevant to Office 2003,
but a good general outline on how to approach the Registry. Make a good
system backup before you begin.

Good luck!
