Interesting, I've installed Office 2007 Ultimate on Win 7 32bit with not the slightest problem. Are you on 32bit or 64bit?

Office installed fine for me and I'm running Win 7 64-bit - so there's definitely something wrong with your windows installer(had to do a complete reinstall already because my windows installer got corrupted).

Did you have to re-install the O/S?

I still can't seem to install it.
