Problems with Outlook 2003 and Server 2008 R2

[Alistair Quigley]

Server 2008 R2 Enterprise running fine in all respects except Outlook 2003 is
extreemly unstable, it fails to start randomly (about one time in every 5)
and I cannot reproduce when its going to fail or not. The server has Remote
Desktop Services role enabled as it is going to be a fully fledged RDS
(terminal) server, so bit of a problem that I can't run Outlook. Office was
installed in application install mode and was installed after the RDS role
was enabled. Have tried re-installing several times.

Have tried using compatability mode to run Outlook.exe in compatability with
a different OS , but choosing any other OS to emulate from the compatability
mode tab simply results in Outlook starting but throwing an error stating
"unable to open default email folders, the information store could not be
opened". Incidentally Outlook is being used as the client for Exchange 2007.

Here is the text from the OS error message when starting Outlook:

Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BEX
Application Name: OUTLOOK.EXE
Application Version: 11.0.8217.0

ocale ID: 2057
Additional information about the problem:

Driving me mad as its preventing me rolling out my new 2008 R2 terminal
server (or RDS server I should say!)

Any ideas much appreciated.
