Ok so im having a computer problem. When i go into microsoft word to update page setup i get an error message and it closes. Then when i look at the detail it prompts me to download 3 service packs. so i download them, then in mid installation i get another error message and that closes. What the hell is going on here?

I asked my GF, shes the techie in our house when it comes to computers and its not a hardware issue.
what version of office? and what OS?
She used to do Tech support for MSN on thier top level and Unisys and some other fucking places but quit to goto work for the Federal Gov for more money and bennys.
If she doesnt know, I got no clue but I know she alot of times finds the answers by googling shit or searching on msn's tech pages. not MSN.com but Microsoft.com, search for something like office (97,2003) what ever version your using and then a short description of what its doing. most times within a couple of searches changing the wording around she has her answers. -
I have no idea.....Can you run your OS repair disc?
-
Well i have office 2003. Like i said it sent me to the microsoft home page and had me download the service packs for it. It all downloaded just fine, but when it was installing it kept closing down. I have no idea, just like roc lol
-
Did you reboot?
The only thing she can find on it is that you MUST reboot after the updates. -
Try selecting the Custom button instead of Express and select only one update item at a time.
-
well i cant reboot after i installed the updates because i cant install the updates. it closes

First thing I would do is run a spyware scanner, then a virus scan and then try getting a single update at a time.
I had the same problem on the laptop I use. It was windows updates not office though. after my virus scan it worked fine.
