Office 2007 Potential Solution for Beta Install Problems

After reading through all of the posts and only seeing questions related to
this installation rather than any solutions, I tried a few different things
on my own. Choosing "upgrade" from Office 2007 rather than "full
installation" worked for me. Before that, I kept getting the freeze that most
people described once the "installing Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007
(beta)." If you don't have any previous editions of Office, maybe downloading
a try-out version of an older version could work, then upgraded to 2007 from
that? The only thing I'm worried about with the "upgrade" option is if this
2007 beta version screws up, then my existing version will be screwed as well.

Another option to potentially try is doing the "full installation" method of
2007 and only choose one or two components (i.e. Word or PowerPoint only) and
leaving out all of the extra tools, or not selecting "Run all of this from my
computer" versus "Run on first use of this program" etc.

Hope this helps!
