When I try to install Office 2013 32 Bit - on a Windows 8.1 64 Bit Virtual Machine that is hosted on ESXi Host server .....it stucked installing it for hours and hours without finishing ....... I tried to install locally on a mounted ISO image with the same
result !!

Hi,
At which specific percentage will the setup hang? Vuk is right above, but it's really hard to say what's the cause of your case.
Please first take a look at this KB article and see if it is helpful for you:
Microsoft Office 2013 or Office 365 hangs during setup
I would suggest you go and check the setup log files to troubleshoot the issue, which is the best way to narrow down the issue I think.

  • Office 2013 fails to activate from KMS host when Office 2013 is installed on windows 8.1 and the KMS is hosted on server 2008 r2

    Any attempt to activate Office 2013 installed on a windows 8.1 computer fails with a "licence key is invalid" message when the KMS is installed on a server running windows 2008 R2. I've installed KB2885698 and VAMT 3.1 but this has made no difference.

    Check that this KMSclient is contacting the correct/expected KMShost. (do you have more than one KMShost??)
    Check at the KMShost that this KMSclient is contacting it, and, look for the correlating events on the KMShost, to see what the KMShost thought about the activation request.

    Its a Windows server 2008 R2 install, fully patched and rebooted.
    Checked the logs and can find nothing, has anyone seen this or know a fix?

  • Office 2013 Installer - Fails with No Errors

    Hello,
    I ran into issues on two different Windows 8 (64-bit) machines today, both with Office 2013 Pro Plus (32-bit) installed. I could not get the installer to come up to add a module (or make any other changes).
    On one of the PCs, I tried running the Fixit to remove Office, since the option of the "Online Repair" was not accessible, (installer would not start). Fixit removed Office, but after a reboot, it still would not run the office installer, even
    with Office 2013 completely gone.
    Things I tried:
    - Disabled anti-virus (windows defender)
    - Run with elevated privileges (I'm a domain admin and UAC is off, but just to be safe)
    - Removed skydrive
    - Cleaned out temp directory
    - Scanned for registry errors (none)
    - Re-downloaded the installer DVD
    - Made sure no pending windows update
    - Reboots (lots of times, definitely after the uninstall)
    - Checked the install log in %temp%, this is what I get:
    2013/08/12 13:51:14:263::[2848] PERF: TickCount=1295931 Name=OBootStrapper::Run Description=Begin function

    This is almost identical to what I see on the other PC, except with different drive letters.
    THERE ARE NO ERROR MESSAGES - no popup, no installer dialog - nothing, which makes it really hard to troubleshoot. And it's happening on both Windows 8 machines that have had Office 2013 installed. I am so frustrated right now after wasting half of today
    troubleshooting this.
    Any thoughts?

  • HP Laserjet P1102 does not print following Office 2013 installation

    Hi
    The computer was upgraded to Office 2013 last week.  Since then the HP Laserjet P1102 printer doesn't work.
     It appears that whatever drivers are installed onto the computer are then over-ridden by the printer's own drivers, which creates multiple icons of the printer with errors.   None of them work.  It also seems to be trying to install as an external CD unit.
    We have had all the computer drivers removed and re-installed, we've checked that the correct drivers are installed, we've changed the lead, changed the printer for one of exactly the same model, gone through all the HP on line assistance.  Hours and hours have been spent on this problem both remotely and hands on by IT knowledgeable people in the last couple of days and no-one can identify a resolution. 
    Ideas please?
    Thanks

    Hi@JG11 ,
    I see by your post since upgrading to Office 2013, you can no longer print. I would be happy to help you, but I will need some more information.
    Try turning off the Smart Install from the CD: On the Windows computer, go to start, computer, right click the CD for the
    printer and left click open in new window, go to util/siutility.exe/HP smart install utility.
    Shows printer or PC - select printer.
    Then click disable.
    (printer has automatic installation feature when connected to a computer by a USB cable)
    Are you having this issue from all applications or just the Office 2013 software?
    Download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. http://www.hp.com/go/tools>Using HP Diagnostic Tools for HP Printers in Windows.
    Run all the Windows Updates.
    The application you are using might require the printer to be set as the default printer and probably doesn't have the ability to search for other printers. Close the application. Set the printer as the default printer. From Devices and Printers, right click the printer, left click set as default.
    Restart the computer.
    Open the application and make sure the application is set to the proper printer name.
    Try printing again.
    I have provided a URL on issues with printing in Word if the issue persists. How to troubleshoot printing problems in Word.
    How is the printer connected? (USB/Wireless)
    What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
    What operating system are you using? How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
    If there is anything else I can help you with, just let me know.
    Have a nice day!

  • Office 2013 Apps and "Phantom" Windows in Taskbar

    After uninstalling Office 2010 and installing Office 2013, all of the Office applications are showing multiple windows in the taskbar for opened context menus in the app.  I thought it had something to do w/ Visual C++ runtime conflicts having 2008

    Hi,
    Try the following steps to check:
    Kill the explorer.exe
    Rename this registry key to remove the registry values that store the pinned icon references.
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Taskband
    Rename this folder that stores the cached shortcuts for pinned items (otherwise repinning will result in shorcuts with names like "Outlook (2)"):                                                                                     
    %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch\User Pinned\TaskBar
    Restart explorer.exe and there should be nothing pinned.

  • Microsoft Office 2013 Not Compatible with Windows 8.1??

    I have a customer that I recently installed Office 2013 onto their brand new Asus Q550. The entire setup went very well but after 2 hours of use with Outlook, the service just stopped. Curiously I went to Word, same thing! Anyone else having this problem
    on their 8.1 device? If so.. Whats the fix???

    Hello,
    I have been with Microsoft tech support and connected remotely with our machine. After 2 hours of trying, she finally gave up and asked me if I am already an Assured
    member? This way they can help me thoroughly with my problem. I have to pay an amout, so they can help me fix it? I just told her that I will just have to fix it myself.
    These computers are brand new and we bought 5 licenses of Office 2013. It only happened when I updated from Windows 8 to 8.1. It was working fine with Windows 8, but
    when I updated the machines to 8.1 it stopped all our MS Office 2013 to work.
    After a thorough research I was able to fix the problem with all our machines. This
    problem has been seen to be caused by certain versions of the third-party DisplayLink User Mode Driver (dlumd32.dll), specifically versions of the dlumd32.dll file lower than 8.7.x.  
    You need to download and install the latest Display Link Software at http://www.displaylink.com/support/downloads.php

  • ISight Camera on Windows Xp as a virtual machine in Virtual Box

    I'm using Virtual Box to run Windows Xp in my MacBook Pro. I have been trying to have a video conference through Messenger but iSight is not being recognized. I've gone through the process of installing the Guest Additions and there I've selected iSight. But when windows try to install the new detected hardware, does not find any driver for iSight. Has anyone been lucky to make iSight Camera work properly under this environment? I've gone to Virtual Box forum and I haven't found any positive answer.
    Message was edited by: RudyGomez

    You’re absolutely right. I installed the Skype program in Mac OS X directly and not in any virtual machine. I forgot to say this. I’m using Virtual Box of Sun Microsystems as the virtualization software and not Parallels neither VMware Fusion neither BootCamp. I went to Virtual Box forums and there is not solution for the moment to make it work the iSight Camera because there is not a driver. Anyway I tried to get the driver from the installation disk that you told me but the Windows virtual machine does not catch the DVD by any means, I tried in different ways and not one worked. Besides I read that the drivers that comes with the installation DVD only works for Boot Camp. I’m not at all an expert on this.
    In spite that now I can have a videoconference with my Windows’ friends and relatives, I’m still waiting for the proper solution to the iSight driver in Virtual Box.
    Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
