Error 57E when automatic SP3 Office 2003 update on Vista - Any Ideas??

Does anyone know the solution or fix for an error code 57E which comes up
when Vista Home Premium tries to automatically install Service Pack 3 to
Office Professional 2003?

Any ideas or leads would be very well recived - Happy Xmas.

MikeL

1. Cancel the automatic install.

2. Download Office 2003 SP3; save it to your desktop, do not Run it!
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...2-5e3c1132f206

3. Insert your Office 2007 CD into the proper drive and do a Repair.

4. Double-click on the saved download
(Office2003SP3-KB923618-FullFile-ENU.exe) to install.

Dear Robear,

Many thanks for the above instructions - I did exactly what you
suggested and now get following the message when I try to 'Repair '
office 2003 from the disk: " Error 1406: setup can not write to
registry key {\CLSID\13DE4A42-8D21-468E-BF9C-8F69CB068FCA} - verify
that you have sufficient permissions etc........if I ignore this I get
the same message but with ref to {F0291081-E873-4E07-97DA-
A0A371ED5863}.........I get the same message if I ignore both and then
try the manual install of the desk top down load file. Also if I try
installing the separate Outloook update and the security updates
first.

I assume some of the original registry files are corrupted??? Can you
please give me any additional advice on getting past this 'permission'
problem? If there a way to change the premissions using 'regedit'??
Please advise and a very merry Xmas to you.

Here's hoping you can get me the next stage after a few very
frustraing days. Many thanks in advance.
