Have you tried changing the destination path when selecting a custom install?
Try completely removing all versions of Office using the information at

Then just install the 32bit version. Unless you are using huge spreadsheets in Excel, there's no need to use the 64bit version

1 - Try to do a repair
2 - if that does not work, look at the folder structure: Should be C:\Program Files\Office or sometimes will be under (even though x64) under C:\Program Files (x86)\office
3 - Still no luck? Look in the registry (be careful here):
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Of
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Wi
HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Of
There may also be some legacy software settings being deployed at:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\

I tried installing with custom install to another directory and/or drive. Still did not work.
IF I search the registry, what do I look for in the structure?
I'd really like to use x64 but may try x32.
