Office 2003 "Detect and Repair" hangs when attempting to run

#1 March 3rd, 2005, 10:02 PM

I went to run a "detect and repair" from the Office 2003 Professional
CD. I got to that screen in the install, selected "Detect and Repair"
along with "Restore start menu shortcuts" and click next, but the
installer hangs, and I eventually get a "not responding" message. Of
course, I have tried to the restart, also tried a "safe" mode install,
and I attempted to run it from the local hard drive as well as our
server copy. Any ideas on how to get past this?

Thanks in advance.

Your question belongs in an Office group, not an Outlook Fax group.
