Hmmm...you had them selected when you installed, and no issues with the install? What brand machine is it?

Try doing a re-install, and make sure you are using a custom install, check wizards in all the application sub-groups. Make sure they are not red crossed or run from CD

Don't forget Add-in Manager in Excel too for the additional wizards and auto-save functions.

AND.. what version is it?

The problem sounds related to the OEM build of Windows provided by DELL.

They have most likely installed a device driver or package of their own (OEMs always install **** that you don't want and won't ever use).

If the said software has installed newer, corrupted or faulty copies of the VB or C Runtime libraries then you might have an issue when Office apps try to use them.

The only way to be sure is to flatten a machine once more, install Windows from a retail CD and then install Office, finally testing again for the same problem.
