I can't get Rosetta to launch ANYTHING! :(  Can someone please help!?

Everytime I try to run a program requiring Rosetta (i.e. Microsoft Office 2004, and about 5 others I have) my Mac says the program "quit unexpectedly. Click Reopen to open the application again. This report will be sent to Apple automatically."
This is driving me crazy! Why won't my Rosetta work? I installed it from the disc during installation, then I was prompted again to install when I tried to install Office 2004. I clicked "install"...but nothing works.
HELP! :/

Try putting in the Snow Leopard install CD and reinstalling Rosetta. Then run Apple Software Update (there are already one or two updates to put on) and then run Microsoft Auto Update and install everything that it comes up with.
MS Office 2004 would crash within Leopard 10.5 unless you downloaded every MS update there was. If you are installing Office '04 for the first time on this Mac then you'll not have these updates in the first place, if you had it before the SL upgrade you may have just lost/corrupted the updates in the process.
If all else fails buy iWork. It's 100% better than Office anyway, and half the price...
