MS Word 2007 runs in W7 Safe Mode Only?

Jeez what a mess. The only thing I can think of now is to reinstall Word now thar you used a /R on the chkdsk. If that doesn't work, then a reinstall of Windows and Office would be the way to go (painful I know).

If you do decide to do a reinstall, we should do a proper clean up that drive first. Let us know.

Jeez what a mess - well that's not a good start - I already did a reinstall of Office and that didn't fix it - but MS Word is now working - the only remaining error is the printer issue - I believe this \Windows\System32\spool\drivers\x64\3\CNMUIA2.DLL. obviously refers to a driver - and the bad HD cluster that was replaced is now causing the printer area - I have to say that the last CHKDSK reads much cleaner than previous entries - so (maybe an eternal optimist) I think good progress has been made.

Thanks heaps for the input and suggestions Golden

Hi Golden,

The HD is about 4 years old.

Now the issue has well and truly swung over to problems getting anything printed to my Cannon Pixma MP640 - either from my Desktop or my wireless Notebook.
DESK TOP POINTS:
* The Printer was initially shown in Devices and Printers but not set as default and didn't present a right click option to make it the default.
* Troubleshoot has an ! next to it - says the driver is not installed.
* Taskbar says new driver being installed - but troubleshooter says unable to fix and CannonMP640 doesn't have a driver - though taskbar says driver installed.
* Tried downloading and installing new driver.
* Tried resetting spool.
* Tried finding printer (not listed) in MS Word - receive Active Directory Domain Services is currently unavailable.
* Hardware - properties - driver - update driver - says best driver already installed!

NOW THE LAPTOP
Attempted printing - PixmaMP640 is turned on - but print from MS Word on Laptop says printer if offline.

Have tried re-installing printer software on Desktop.
