Windows XP SP3 all upgrades/patches installed.

First tried to upgrade an old version, didn't work.

Saw an old thread that recommended making sure that old version is completely uninstalled and deleting the old folder from Program Files so I did that.  

Tried installing the most recent offline version Live Essentials, still no joy.  Always the same, gets to 100% then rolls back the entire install. Always the same error message aborted: 0x80004004
I cannot install the Office 2011 Update 14.2.3 - i get a message saying Sync Services needs to be turned off - I believe I have done this but still not joy - can anyone help?

I have been using Hotmail for over 2 years without any problems over the past week I can not recieve any emails.I have been trying for the last 3 days at

least to resolve this issue via micrsoft support site trying variouse methods. I even tried via Google Chrome no joy,

I can access all my emails via my ISP (talktalk) but I prefer Hotmail, Ihave also tried upgrading to outlook result no difference

Please help.

My Outlook for Mac was showing the message "Authentication Failed"  I tried reloading outlook and have done all the available updates, still no joy.  Outlook appears to load but with no viewing panes. Can anyone pleas give me some clues.
I get the splash screen and then it simply closes. Using MS Mountain Lion, MS Office 2011. Tried using the option key start no joy. Looked at Library preferences no Outlook, just office licensing - I uninstalled and reloaded Outlook, still not working. Updates were installed... What am I doing wrong?? Help
After the 10.8.2 update, whenever my Mac sleeps, the audio cues (bing!) when new messages are received will not play. Restarting Outook - no joy. Only after restarting computer will the sounds return. Have also upgraded to 14.2.4.

Anyone having the same problem? Any solution?

Thanks,

Is working fine on my other laptop - this one used to go well until today. Have tried all solutions as suggested on internet and still no joy. Any help to resolve would be much appreciated.
