Word 2007 Error

D

Desperate

I just got Office 2007, but I am unable to open Word, everytime I click on
it, I get a message saying "There isn't enough memory or disk space to open
word."

I am sure I have enough memory (256MB) and disk space (40GB), I just don't
know why I can't open word.

I found on the internet that if I rename the normal.dot, word will run fine,
but that's not true for me, I renamed the file and word still give me the
same problem.

Someone help

Hi Desperate,

For the purposes of the Office 2007 beta 256MB of RAM is the minimum system requirement, so if you have other apps/utilities or
addins running things may be slow or just not start.

See if the following helps

1. Use the Disk cleanup tool for Windows from
Start=>Programs=>Accessories=>System tools to clear your internet files and temporary file categories.

2. Use Start=>Search and looking for files named
~$*.*
and send those to the recycle bin then restart the computer and see if Word 2007 starts. (If you have Outlook 2007 running you may
need to close it).


If those steps don't work , then try starting Word in Office safe mode (hold ctrl key when starting Word) to see if that lets you
start Word. If that works, then in Word use

File(OfficeButton)==>Word Options==>Resources
and run the Office diagnostics.

H Desperate,

Did you get any error message when starting in Office safe mode?

Did you have all other apps/utilities and such shut down before starting Word?

Can you successfully complete a repair of Office 2007 from its listing in Add/Remove Programs in the Windows Control Panel.
