Office 2007 upgrade wont accept my previous version to install Greg 6/7/2007 12:55:45 PM To start, i had Office XP and Office 2003 installed. When trying to upgrade to 2007, it seemed to check the computer and go ahead with the installation. toward the end of the installation, it would get an error and the only way out is to rollback. Tried numerous times. With some internet research, it seems like something was conflicting so I uninstalled both Office XP and 2003. Now im trying to install 2007 and it asks for the CD of a previous version. I have used the CDs for both of the older versions and its saying it isnt an upgradable version. Next I tried reinstalling both XP and 2003 and then installing 2007 again and its still asking for the CD or location of a previous version. Ive tried both with the CDs as well as pointing to where I just installed the previous version. I also have Works that came with the computer which the box says is a qualified upgrader and still nothing. So whats the problem and where do I go from here?
