Re: office 2007 beta

You are more likely to get that error when you are downloading the
SmartSource software which requires .NET Framework 1.1

Re: office 2007 beta

The Smart Source Program does NOT work with Windows Vista Beta 2 and Windows
Code Name Long Horn Beta 2, just FYI. The Work Around that I used was: I
Downloaded Microsoft Office 2007 Beta 2 (using the Smart Source Program) on
a Windows XP Service Pack 2 Based Computer, and then I Transferred the .exe
file over my Home Network to my Windows Code Name Long Horn Server Beta 2
computer, just FYI. This Work Around should work with Windows Vista Beta 2
as well, just FYI.

Re: office 2007 beta

I dl'd the Office Beta 2 iso from MSDN. Burned it to CD and tried to install
on 5384.4 and it threw a dlg box telling me I needed administrator rights to
install... well, since my user acct IS part of the administrators group...
didn't make much sense.

I went and dicked around with gpedit for the UAC or whatever it is stuff...
still wouldn't work.

I added my acct to the users group... and that seemed to do the trick...
THAT doesn't make much sense either, and I didn't have a forensic (sp?)
trail of what I'd done and when I'd rebooted... but I had rebooted a few
times, so I figured the gpo settings I'd changed should have been in place
when the install continued to tell me I didn't have admin rights... and I
ain't gonna reinstall Vista and Office just to find out! ;-)
