Office Standard 2010

Right after starting setup install comes up that it has encountered an error and fails. It gives no error code or number. This is on a Terminal Server of Server 2008 Standard. Any suggestions where to look or begin is appreciated. THanks

Check Application event log for any error.

Nothing abnormal appears in event log. There was a failed install of Office 2007 tried earlier on in process. Could something still be in registry? If so how do i clean the registry? Thanks

Trying to load Office 2010 Standard 64 BIt on Server 2008 Standard. Any help is appreciated. Thanks
Are you installing manually or using Office Customization Toolkit (OCT)?  If not using OCT, I suggest you try to use OCT first.  To use OCT, simply run admin /setup from the disc location or share location where you store your Office setup files.  Good luck.

If you don't have time to read the articel, follow the steps below:

In Windows XP

Type cd "%allusersprofile%\Application Data\Microsoft Help", and then press ENTER.
Type attrib -h rgstrtn.lck, and then press ENTER.
Type del rgstrtn.lck, and then press ENTER.
Type dir /b /od /ad, and then press ENTER.
Type rd /q /s "<folder names>", and then press ENTER.

Note The <folder names> are the folder names that are listed after you run the command in step 5. There should be a space between each folder-name. For example: rd /q /s "foldername1" "foldername2" "foldername3".
Type exit, and then press ENTER.
