Office 2010 will no install.

I bought Office 2010 Home and Student and I can not get it to install on my Dell Studio Xps 8100. I got it to install on my laptop, but not my desktop. I have removed all I can of 2007 (Publisher will not uninstall) and I have left the installation run for many many hours. I have tried installing in a clean boot as well. Any suggestions?

What error message are you getting?

Im not getting any error message, it just hangs for hours at either 50% or 100%.

Is this a 64-bit install on a 32-bit OS?
Also, disable virus scanner.
How far do you get in the install process?

It's a 64-Bit OS. I have also disabled my anti virus - no difference.

I just said it hangs at 50% or 100%.

Try completely uninstalling Office with this tool ... Office Uninstaller ... then run the setup file as administrator ... this should resolve your installation problem ...

Go to: How do I uninstall Office 2003, Office 2007 or Office 2010 suites if I cannot uninstall it from Control Panel?
and select the cleanup utility for Office 2007.
Then retry 2010 install.

I just ran that program, got a run time error than Windows told me to run it as an administrator so I did and them it finished successfully. I'm putting in the 2010 disc now.

It's been hanging at 50% for a wile now, is this normal?
