Yesterday, I installed MS Office Pro 2007 (over my 2003). I had never used it before and realized that I did not want to use it at this time as I use MS Office 2003 at work. I restored my computer to a previous date thinking this would take 2007 off an put me back to my original setup. NOT! To make a long story a little shorter, I tried to reinstall 2003 (after some patching). I got as far as the install command, and I got a menu with 3 of my drives on it (I was copying to the C drive which had lots of space). It told me I had "insufficient space" on my D:\drive which is my DVD Recorder drive. I cannot get past this message. Does anyone know how to make my computer recognize that I am installing to my C:\drive only?
After you 'restored' your PC did you then reference the kb article on manual removal of Office 2007?

No, I didn't. I will try that this evening. Thank you for your help. I will let you know if that did the job.

DL Well, I'm at home trying to find the kb article on manual removal of office 2007. I guess I have to admit, I don't know what I'm doing. Please tell me where I might find this article. Thanks a bunch.
