Can't uninstall Access 2003 Runtime - Error 2709: Global_PIA_OWC11

[Gyetko]

I have a system which has both Office 2007 (including Access 2007) and
Access 2003 Runtime installed on it. Every time I switch back and
forth between using Access 2007 and the 2003 Runtime, it goes through
a few installation/configuration steps. This is fine except that this
last time I closed out of Access 2007 and tried to open an application
using Access 2003 Runtime and it is now giving me an error. The error
is:

Error 2709. An internal error has occurred.
(Global_PIA_OWC11)

I've tried uninstalling, repairing, and re-installing all with no
luck. It gives me this error and then ends the installation process.
I've tried from the control panel and by running the msi.

At first I could get into the application after clicking ok on the
error message, but in my efforts to try to get it uninstalled, I can't
even get into the application anymore. Does anyone have any
suggestions or know what needs to be done to manually uninstall it?
Thanks!

I finally got it uninstalled by using the Windows Installer CleanUp
Utility. Here's the link in case anyone else runs into this issue.

I had the same problem. I had only a C:-drive and after adding a D:-drive
and assigning E: to DVD the problem was resolved

I had this happen to me also.

I had MSOff2k3 and Office2007 compatibility pack...i had the error when
installing MSAccessRT2k3..

I had to uninstall Office2007 Compatiblity Pack then Uninstall AccessRT and
Reinstall-it..

That worked for me!
