OFFICE 2007 beta installation

I had some problems with the installation too, first i had a message saying
the following applications should be closed before continuing the install
with a long path name in the message box. I assumed as Media player was the
only application i was running that maybe it was that, so i closed it and
checked my processes to make sure all other programs where closed. i clicked
retry and it carried on...
but then it said it again and yet the message box was BLANK. i found it
quite ammusing in a way and just clicked retry yet it came up another two
times i made sure their was absolutely no programs running and kept clicking
retry but in the end it CRASHED the installation and i had to close and start
again, this time i went on custom installation instead of upgrade and removed
some things i didnt want any way so that i was left with only:
Access
Word
Excel
PowerPoint
Publisher
and this time the installation completed.

I also agree with the nice new interface! it was a bit of a shock at first
but it only took a few seconds to get used to!

I also had the "following applications should be closed" dialog. It
was empty and after hitting Retry about 15 times only to have it
reappear every time (the progress bar advancing after each retry until
it was full), I just hit ignore. Now I am just watching as my
harddrive light flashes once in a while. Setup hasn't finished yet and
because the progress bar is full, I have no idea what is going on.
