Office 2007 Enterprise Install

B

BruceO

I am running Vista Home Premium, attempting to install Office 2007 Enterprise
(Office Professional Edition 2003 is already installed, so I'm performing an
upgrade). After loading the DVD, keying the license key (accepted), and
waiting for 15 minutes or so, the install is rolled back with an "Error
1712.One or more of the files required to restore your computer to its
previous state could not be found. Restoration will not be possible." I've
tried rebooting several times, perfomed a CheckDisk... nothing seems to work.
Does anybody have a clue for me?

Thanks!

Lately it seems like everyone and their brother and cousins have it. I'm the
suspicious sort and have my doubts about the legality of a lot of these
installations.

Where did you get the Office 2007 Enterprise Edition from ??

Me too. That is why I asked the OP as to where he did get it. Besides I think Office Enterprise comes with only as a Volume License and I do not think it is capable of Upgrade as the OP is saying in his post. It is a full install.

I am taking this above from my Office 2003 Enterprise Edition

I think Bob is wrong on this one. It is not available in a Retail version. If it is then it will be cost restrictive to the ordinary person because Enterprise is named as such for the Volume License that it carries with it..
It can be purchased from an employer who has bought one and sells 1 license to one of his employees. He recoups some of the cost that he put out for the purchase.
My 0ffice 2003 Enterprise with 25 CALS cost me $3900 at the time of my purchase a few years ago. I believe that the Enterprise version but do not hold me to it comes in 10,25 and an unlimited license versions and the price reflects the amount of CALS..

Hi Peter,

The 'retail', or probably more accurately the 'non volume license' package of MS Office 2007 Enterprise edition does exist :)
There's a 60 day trial of it available for download
http://microsoft.com/products/info/...25cc2435-87b5-4b2d-b6a3-2d07fca748d5&type=ovr

or through
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/evalcenter/bb188203.aspx
and it's the 'retail' version that was originally included as 'Enterprise edition' for the MS Partners Action Pack (10 installs) and
certain MSDN subscription types.

It's the same product as the Volume license one except that the files needed to use the Office 2007 Customization Tools (OCT) [
http://microsoft.com/office/ork ] for deployment have not been included and unless they've updated the download pages recently it
doesn't mention that the download to try out for Admins doesn't have the Admin tools.

For companies who have volume license programs and if I recall, school licenses, those license holders can also make the Enterprise
edition under the Home Use/Education programs.

Hi Bob

I am aware of MSDN since I own a Universal Subscription. As far as the Retail version of Enterprise 2007 I think it is only available with a minimum of 5 Cals. I just checked my online supplier and it is available for order for $2320 with the 5 Cals. They do not list one with a single license . Before I continue and you might be right which I think is not the case here but let me check tomorrow with a large Retail supplier if a single version with 1 license is available for order or purchase on the Retail level.

I will post back here tomorrow at one point with what I am able to learn on the above. Thanks Bob

While I can appreciate the debate over the legitimitacy of the
software, I can assure all of you that it is a fully legal copy,
labeled "Home Use Program" w/an orange label printed w/product key on
the backside of the case. Can anyone help me w/this issue at hand? I
sincerely appreciate any help that anyone can provide.

Thank you!

I have MAPS but that includes Office 2007 Business edition, not Enterprise.
I got my Enterprise through Technet Plus, which is not licensed for
production use. I can, however, use it in a test environment and use it to
deploy Office to 1000 clients, as long as someone signs and pays for the
Volume Licensing contract upon deployment.

Having said that, there also exists a version of Enterprise for home use,
which is the version that pops up here now and then. It's not available
through retail channels, but customers with a volume licensing contract can
give it to their employees for home use.

<rant>
Though I understand that nobody here wants to help people with pirated
copies of any piece of software, it's getting annoying that the first
response to a question regarding Enterprise here is another question, "do
you have a legit copy?". That's irrelevant, you can't tell. My copy of
Enterprise is legit as long as I don't use it to write letters or read my
e-mail. And having a legit source (Microsoft) does not guarantee the install
media is error-free. The install problems I have had with Enterprise turn
out to be the result of corruption in one of the mirrors of the Technet/MSDN
download site. And, this NG is called microsoft.public.office.setup, not
ms.p.office.licensing or ms.p.office.piracy.

Not a question of legitimacy but a question as how to answer properly. It all depends where you got the Enterprise edition from. To answer on the Enterprise edition is not the same as it would be on Off Pro,STE etc.

So where did you get the Enterprise Edition of Office from???

Hi Bob

I just finished checking with 2 Retail outlets 1 in Florida and one in NY. They both claim the same. Yes they can order it but it comes with 5 Cals and the price in Miami is $2595 and in NY $2365. It is something that they do not carry and they have to order and will tale up to 4-6 weeks before they receive it. I do not think that an ordinary person that uses the computer a few times a week will buy something at that price. It is very cost restrictive to most. Maybe this is different in some other States but this is what I got until now.

I ask again. Where did you get from.You jumped someone else's question who answered the question I asked of them
I am aware that you are showing error 1712

Thank you for your interest, Peter.

I ordered and obtained the software (both Office Pro 2003 and Office
Enterprise 2007) directly from Microsoft. My employer offers the software to
its employees through an agreement w/MS.

Hi Peter,

The Enterprise 'Retail' edition (which is one commonly used with the Home Use License program) has an EnterpriseR.ww folder
the 'regular' Enterprise would be Enterprise.ww and would also include the \Admin folder.

The Home Use License can be as little as $25 through a qualifying employer.
