Office 2007 installation fails on Windows 7 RC with error 1935

I have happily installed Office 2007 on Windows 7 RC on both my laptop and PC and endeavouring to free my friend from the dreaded Vista, did a clean install of W7 RC on his Dell 1545 laptop, but when I try and install Office 2007 I get error 1935.

Any ideas please!!

Error message when you try to install a 2007 Office program: "Error 1935. An error occurred during the installation of assembly component"

Have you seen this?

Any additional corresponding errors in the event logs, around the same time frame? Is this a downloaded version, or from the DVD?

ok, I've have the same problem but when I right click on the installation icon and click 'troubleshoot compatability' I get the error messge: 'an unexpected error has occured. The troubleshooting wizard cannot continue'

Clicked on the View Error details and that shows the following:
Package ID: PCWDiagnostic
Path: C:\windows\diagnostics\PCW
Error code: 0x80131700
User: Robster-PC\Robster
Context: Restricted.

I cannot believe Microsoft has trouble installing it's own products!!
