Did the installer work at all ?

it did
but failed final install
didn't try compat mode

I'm running W7 ultimate x64 and running office enterprise 07 with no problems. I'm not a 100% sure you must install sp2 for office, some comps had issues with outlook and others.

The install i just did seems to work ok and it doesn't even have sp1 in it.

What I've found the best especially for sound drivers is as soon as the install finishes before installing any drivers (Besides lan if needed) do a windows update.

I have a Creative X-Fi card and the drivers you download from creative suck, but the ones through windows update work perfectly.

The only driver I don't get from Windows Update is the Video Card driver.

I'm running Office 2003, I hate the crappy ribbon,
But I have tried Office 2007 and Office 2010 64Bit all work fine.

I'd say give it a format and install Windows 7 64 again and run windows update.
You can do this prior to using the loaders that are around too, just don't install Malicious Software Removal Tool..

i dont want this kid ringing me every bsod so i just but x86 back on it
there not not paying me really enough for all the bonus stuff i do
its fine on 32 bit
it hammers anyway with the specs
wats wrong with the malicious software update?

If you use a loader on Win 7, the malicious software update can sometimes remove the loader. But if you're using a legit version its fine to install.

i dont use the loaders
i got special editions
it dont like the wga but the wat fixes that anyway
