there is not enough memory or disc space to run Word

Hi


Few things can cause this from corrupted Office install, to a corrupted document file, do you have the Office CD/DVD handy?

Is this a new install of Office 2007 or has Office 2007 Word been working upto this point?

Try opening Word in its safe mode, click Start > Run and paste this line WINWORD.EXE /a if it works ok then likelyhood is a non compatible 3rd party add-on, this we can cross if Word works in its safe mode.

Also one thing to try is Office Diagnostics http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HA012340761033.aspx (can run this from any Office product)

 

Hi


Try this and rename the normal.dotm template file and instructions are under this heading Global Template (Normal.dotm or Normal.dot) in this guide http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822005



If you still have the setup files, then uninstall and then run a cleanup with CCleaner and its Cleaner and Registry tools (run the registry one over again until nothing is listed) then reinstall Office 2007.

 

Hi

Previous issues with same, have been resolved with the recreation of the normal.dotm file or running disagnostics, so have to think you have something just installed that has caused this to now happen after 3 months of use.

• Did you have another version of Office on your PC, if so what version and is it still installed or did you remove?
  
  
• Goto Add or Remove Programs Click Microsoft Office XXXXXXXX 2007 ( XXX is your version of Office) and then click Change > Click Repair, and then click Continue, then reboot and see if Office works.
  
• What Antivirus or security applications do you have installed? if Norton, then as its Office add-on has caused issues in the past similar to this, then disable its add-on, instruction here
  
  
• Do you have the Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system installed? if so uninstall it, reboot and check office.
  
  
• When did this issue start? from the day of your post yesterday or further back in time? asking this as I have two other options, but rather see how the above goes first.

Please do one at a time and check Office for working properly.

 

Hi


Did this issue first occur after the move from the old drive to new and how or what did you move over, was it the Windows and System folders or just saved data files like my docs etc?

Did you also re-install Windows on that old HD that you put into the PC or just plugged it in from another Windows install and PC?



Did you uninstall Office 2003 from the old or now the newly installed HD before installing Office 2007?

Is Office 2003 still installed and working ok?



*just trying to get some info as to whats happened as it seems if transfering the old hd to the new PC and not reinstalling Windows it could have various old permissions or registry files etc that are stopping Office 2007 from opening, as not being infront of PC and wizzing through whats going on myself I rely on what you can tell me so as much as possible info is good.


Download and install this app http://majorgeeks.com/Windows_Installer_CleanUp_Utility_d4459.html and please list what Office applications and versions it finds, dont remove anything just yet.

 

Hi Thomas


You answred my question and all you have is Office 2007 from what your saying on that Pc and from whats listed in Sys Info, Windows Installer wont do much to help here as Office 2003 is not installed.


At times kind of a mess to mix new user account with old account data unless transfered properly, but try this to see if its an account issue as to fix Office 2007 I've exhausted the tips I know (may need to search the net for answers for you) but create a new Admin account from Control Panel > User Accounts and make sure its an Admin one and then reboot and see if Office works or even re-install it in that account.
