Guest Dan I Posted July 19, 2007 Posted July 19, 2007 I hope somebody can help. I recently purchase Microsoft Office Professional 2007. Word and Excel installed properly, but when I installed disk #2 I received an error message. The message stated that I could not install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express. I contacted Microsoft and they indicated that it is a WMI configuration problem, and they were not responsible (Windows XP Professional was installed on my computer by others). The company that installed Windows XP do not have any idea on how to fix the problem. Has anybody have the same problem with this application. Has anybody have any solutions on how to fix my WMI system for my computer. Do I reinstall WIndows XP, which I hope I do not have to do.

If not you could do a "Repair" install which fixes problems. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/helpandsupport/learnmore/tips/doug92.mspx Pay attention to number 3 on the page. You do not want to launch the recovery console for this operation. Mark
