- Office 2007 won't load on a XP Pro machine
- Posted by IDA Dave on July 3rd, 2008
I have a user that is working on a XP Professional machine with Office 2003.
He needs to upgrade to Ofiice 2007. When I try and upgrade to 2007 I get an
error saying that Office needs a newer version of Windows. All the other
users I upgraded to have XP Home and the upgrades went fine. I have loaded
all Microsoft updates on the XP Pro machine. How can I upgrade to Office
2007 and bypass this bogus error message?

If the machine you are attempting to upgrade does not have at least XP SP2
installed the error message is NOT bogus. You need SP2 or later for XP to
install Office '07.
