Please close other applications and try again." when trying to start Excel 2007. Also, all other Office applications refuse to start with various error messages. I tried the repair option from the install image and also uninstalled/reinstalled but the error persist. I found this superuser thread with a link to a suggestion that http://superuser.com/questions/1016545/possible-registry-fix-for-a-not-enough-memory-to-run-microsoft-excel-error this is a user account error in the registry It says: "I am aware of the error you are getting, in order to get rid of it you will have to delete below key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\SID of the affected user> You can follow below steps for doing that. Go to start > run > type "regedit" without quotes and click on ok. Navigate to above registry key and delete it. Make sure that you are backing up current registry to be at safer side, best of luck." Just to check if this could be a user account error, I set up a new test account on my laptop and using this account Office works as usual. So, the proposed registry fix is to delete HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Installer\UserData\SID of the affected user> This registry key holds loads of sub folders and keys and I'm feeling reluctant to remove it without knowing more of what it's for and possible implications. So are there any registry gurus out there who can tell me wether it's safe to remove this key to fix this Office error? Edit: Type wmic useraccount get name,sid in your command prompt to find out your SID. microsoft-excel windows-xp windows-registry share|improve this question edited Dec 22 '15 at 13:32 asked Dec 22 '15 at 1:12 Bo01 1306 you can always rename it, and see what comes from it.

I tried reinstalling and all other options that I got googling, but in vain. Any help would be appreciated.

The most common fix for this seems to be renaming the normal template file (NORMAL.DOT) so that Word regenerates it from defaults when it starts. But presumably you already tried this, is that right? –boot13 Aug 17 '10 at 10:44 2 Gigs Ram, 250 Gigs hdd, Win XP, Intel Dual Core 2.7 Ghz –Ram Aug 17 '10 at 10:44 @boot13, yes I tried that and also tried reinstalling, repairing and also using the diagnostics tool. but no use –Ram Aug 17 '10 at 10:45 Do you actually have the memory available for it run? Seems unlikely this is actually the problem, but you don't mention that this is OK, so thought I'd ask just in case. Also, there's not much in the way of answers, but have you looked at this question? –DMA57361 Aug 17 '10 at 11:46 | show 1 more comment 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote hmm... since no spec of computer. Maybe it is good to try to install openoffice.org and try to open in openoffice - this will exclude file corruption. share|improve this answer answered Aug 17 '10 at 11:38 Stani 154114 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote accepted Finally got it fixed
