The usual causes are a) corrupted registry entries or b) corrupted

For starters... I assume that you've tried rebooting.

Will Word start in Safe Mode? Hold down the Ctrl key when you start Word and
click Yes to the prompt asking if you want to start in Safe Mode.

If it starts in Safe Mode... close Word and locate Normal.dotm, and either
rename it or delete it.

If Word starts now, you're done.

If not, try deleting the Data key in the registry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\12.0\W ord

This page contains info on editing the registry:
