Installing Office2007

abowers · 07-24-2008, 11:09 AM

I went to install Office 2007 on an XP machine. I unstinalled 2003, restarted and tried to install Office 2007. I got an error message that said This application has failed to start because dbghelp.dll was not found. Re-installing the application may fix this problem. I got on google to see what this error was, downloaded the debugging software from Microsoft, still doesn't work. Installed 2003 again, it works. Without unstalling Office 2003, I tried to install Office '07, I still get that error message.

Any suggestions?

You say, "On our network."

Is this a home network of a corporate network?
