Good day all

I have been testing out a gpo installation of office 2007 with mixed results:
1. After formatting and re installing OS it installs fine.
2. After the same as above it just installs the office tools and sets office to install at first use.
3. Same as above but always configures office on first use.
4. Removes already installed Office 2007 and doesn't reinstall.

My apologies I neglected to ask the question, what could be causing this, is there something I am missing. I should also mention that it worked fine when it was part of the default domain policy, then I created a separate gp for it and then it started acting like this.

I had just figured out that most of the time the problem was that the display level in the config file was set to "none", so when a machine starts up the installation is still running in the background and I would hastily fire up office while the installation was still on. Now that I have the display level set to basic my problems are almost gone ;)
