Default Problem with Word Set Up

I recently cloned by drives to larger ones.

Most things seem to work okay

But when I click on my Word2003 icon I get the message
Preparing to Install

Then This program in no longer fuctioning
Run set up and Repair.

But then Word opens

So I went to set up and it says this patch cannot be found and doesnt
do anything

It won't let me install

Default Re: Problem with Word Set Up

Found my solution

After running Microsoft Installer cleanup utility which didnt help
found this

Error: 1635 This patch package could not be opened. Verify that the
patch package exists and that you can access it, or contact the
application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer
patch package. Solution: Registry key is corrupt. Please delete the
key 9040110900063D11C8EF00054038389C under the following location.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Installer\Prod ucts\ After
deleting, restart the computer and rerun the Office XP setup. This
should run without any problems.

Then I could reinstall Word.
