[AccessD] Jet Service Pack 8

Not an answer to you problem, but:

Do you mean you did a real installation? i.e. made your PC multi-boot?

Or are you using VirtualBox or similar? 

The second option is much easier that messing around with multi-boot solutions and new OS 
instals.  Just create one clean image and then you can clone it and instal different software 
on each clone. (Or one clean image with each desired combination of OS/Office and clone as 
necessary from them).   You don't need to worry about about serial keys/re-validation every 
time you want to hose an installation and start again.
