Just recovered from a serious viral/trojan attack. Now I can't run any of the Office 2003 Professional applications. I get sometimes 5 quick successive pop-up windows saying "Preparing to Install" that promptly close, and then a choice to repair or not. The repair option leads to another message; "Installation Error 1635" or or the other path leads to "Reinstall". My Ferrari 4000 laptop, running XP Home didn't come with the original Office CD's, except a series of recovery disk that warn me that the drive will be reformated to factory state. I can't have that. Please, please help. -- Progress is not without fault
I'm having the same problem with Outlook 2003 (11.8118.8172 SP2). I used to be able to import Excel files to Calendar with no problems. Now I get the same Windows Installer Error 1635. Another rogue patch from Redmond? -- I know enuff to be dangerous. Für Elise - Support the Breast Cancer & Heart Foundations "Sir Fluke" wrote: > Just recovered from a serious viral/trojan attack.
