Office Uninstall Hell
k, so this is a proxy post. My Brother got a new machine from dell and used Aloha Bob to transfer stuff over to the new machine. He has full box products of Windows XP and Office 2003, and was preparring to canablize the old machine. So he runs the utility and it proclaims to do the trick, however when he boots up the new system, post transfer of stuff, Office won't run. So he figures what the hey, I'll remove Office and re-install it. Yea right!!!!
Apparently he had several pages of regedits to run simply to remove a reference to his old 'E:\' drive. See the new system only had a single HD partition...'C:\' and no 'D:\' drive, and there was some reference buried in the registry that was looking for 'E:\'
Long Story short, Aloha Bob has some work to do before he'll ever use that thing again...
In the Future Ray, just use the transfer files and settings wizard, and reinstall your apps.
