reinstalling BETA

J

John C. Harris

I had to make some changes on a laptop and trying reinstall 2007 Beta 2. Now
when I try to install it is giving me an error halfway through that a
problem was encountered in the load. It offers no other explanation. I have
checked to make sure it is not hiding in the registry somewhere but cannot
see it.

Why install the beta when there are fully functional 60 day trials available for download? If you are going to purchase the software after January 30 anyway, there is no harm in getting a trial that will bridge the time between now and retail availability.

I don't know - issues that happened in the beta have been fixed in RTM. Yours may be among them which is why I recommend getting a RTM trial.

OK I got the trial but it will not load with the BETA still on the system.
The BEAT will not uninstall. I keep getting a "package error".
