I installed office 2007 onto my vista 32bit laptop.
Outlook dosent work for some reason so I have decided to uninstall it.
when I go to uninstall it I get a message telling me that the language of this instillation package is not supported by your system.

Is there anything I can do to get this to work. I have tried reinstalling office 3 times but still the same thing
 
I don't use Vista, nor have I come across this problem before, but if you can't find an answer from google, I would be tempted to hack it out myself (i.e. manually deleting folders and reg entries).\m

Most important ones to remove, I would imagine would be hklm\software\microsoft\office\12 and the uninstaller info (can't remember where that is - but shouldn't be too difficult to find), then running something like ccleaner to remove any left over file types, etc.

This is a *VERY* messy fix and not guaranteed 100% (or at all, really), so it's really not recommended unless you have no other choice.

[p.s. make backups of the registry before proceeding - and I take no responsibility for anything!!]

Like I said - google it, if you can't find an answer... and no-one here can give a better solution...
