Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

I am using MS Word 2007 and I get the "Microsoft Office Word has stopped
working" when I try to open some (not all) documents.

The operating system is MS Windows Vista Business, version 6.0.6000 build
6000.

I tried editting my registry for Word, changing Data to OldData and Options
to OldOptions but this did not help. There is no Addins entry.

When I go to Word Options and attempt to select Add-Ins, I get the same
"Microsoft Office Word has stopped working" error.

This is not a trial version of Word. It came pre-loaded with Microsoft
Office 2007.

Re: Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

Did you purchase MS Office?

If not: open source (free) office suite. www.openoffice.org

Re: Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

Yes, I did purchase MS Office. I am using OpenOffice now as a workaround,
but I would like to get MS Word to work.

Re: Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

You might do better posting to microsoft.public.word.

Re: Microsoft Office Word has stopped working

Regarding "... It came pre-loaded with Microsoft
Office 2007...." - usually these are "trial" versions, however if you have
the Office CD insert and select "repair".
