Hope someone could help me with this in Word 2007 under Vista:

I set new default margins for my documents from the page layout and click
'Default'. After closing the present document and creating a new one, I don't
get the page layout that I specified earlier as default. Rather, I get the
factory-made defaults even if I restart Word!!!

That suggests that there is an incompatible third party add-in stopping the
saves to the global template. Under Word Options | Advanced tab in the Save
section, make sure that 'Prompt before saving normal template' option is
checked. Then change the page margins again and press the Default button.
Now close Word.

Did you get a prompt to save changes to the global template?
