Hi,

I can't test this because I alreay have 2007, but are you trying the
download from

http://us1.trymicrosoftoffice.com/pr...&culture=en-US

And does you admin privileges in Windows allow you to install software?

Does your system meet all the requirements listed on the page above under
System Requirements?
