Error 1923: Service ‘Office Source Engine’ (ose) could not be installed

If you installed a prerelease version of office 2007. You might get this error message
when you try to install the full version of office 2007.

One solution is to restart you computer once you uninstall the prerelease version of office, and then
install the full version.

  2. Is there any other error message in the Event Logs? Also, you can try using the Microsoft Diagnose Tools.
