There's a whole discussion of error 1714 here: 
http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=38963 but it relates to a Win 
98 installation, not XP. Still, it might be worth your while looking at some of 
the tools they mention.

Have you rebooted the system after cleaning out any old OOo installation(s)? if 
not, that might be worth a try. Presumably you've looked carefully at the list 
of installed software in Control Panel>Add/Remove Programs?

Other than that, I'm afraid that without sitting at your machine and "sniffing 
around" I don't know what else to suggest. Is there a computer guru near you 
that might help?
