Thats sorted it. My control panel works now.

I've got a problem with Microsoft Office now, some programs work and others dont. when I try opening microsoft access a window come up with "windows installer" and initialises but then just disappears and access doesnt open. also when I try and open excel I get the message "class not regisitered" but then excel seems to open up fine.

I search microsoft.com for a fix and found one for the excel problem, but its for microsoft excel97 only and im reluctant to try it as I've got the 2003 version:
