Reload of Office xp Professional (2002)

[steveb]

(OS is Windows XP Prof) I have had to replace my motherboard and had to
reload most programs. Reloading my copy of Office XP PRO 2002 from the disk
allows me to open all the associated programs except Access. Clicking on the
Access program name provides a box which says "Please wait while Windows
configures Microsoft Office XP Professional". This message appears twice and
then closes but Access does not open. I have installed and deleted the
program several times to no avail. Any suggestions?

I changed the folder where the Office XP is stored in the Program Files
instead of using the recommended one and this does the trick.
