Office 2007 configuring on each start up

[Paisley007]

I have office 2007 installed in my machine, and when ever i try to open any office applications such as Access or Word, then it runs the configuration for than 10 minutes or so before it starts the application. Can anyone please tell me how do i solve this issue. I have already tried uninstalling and reinstalling the office suite, but that didnt help.

Check the below solution that worked for me:

1. When i went into event viewer, I was getting the following message:
   Detection of product '{30120000-0026-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}', feature 'AlwaysInstalled', component '{90120000-0026-0000-0000-00413F67CB5F}' failed. The resource 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft Expression\Office12\ID_00026.DPC' does not exist.
2. After that I was supposed to install the Expression Beta at some point and therefore i uninstalled it before installing Office 2007.
3. After that I checked the registry for 30120000-0026-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE (from the error message above) and deleted all keys/values with that string.
4. Now every other Office apps start properly.

Even I was facing similar issues but apparently I found a fix for same. I first reinstalled Windows XP on my machine and then upgraded to Windows Vista. After that I went to Control Panel >> administrator tools > local security policies and then expanded it and went into security options, then at the top side in the right pane you will come accross "accounts: administrator account status", it will be disabled by default, just enable it and reboot the computer and after that you will not face this problem again.
