Microsoft Troubles. Shoot!

The weirdest thing happened this morning. I got up at 5 a.m. as usual to get in an hour of writing before work, and Microsoft Work didn't open. I'm not talking about individual documents, but about Word itself. Deleting my Normal.dot templates (occasionally become corrupted) had no effect. The problem resolution functionality finally pointed out I had compatibility issues, which is odd, since the program worked perfectly yesterday. My troubleshooter's subsequent attempts to...troubleshoot made no difference. I've since checked Excel and Access etc., and none of them start. Forums have been largely unhelpful.

I'm miffed.

Now I have to dig around at home for my product key to try uninstall/reinstall, hoping it's merely corrupted. But how can all my MS Tools become corrupted at once? Then again, if corruption isn't the problem, I'm stumped. Has anyone else had this problem?

Grrr.
