Maybe something went wrong with the Office installer when this user first
logged in or his windows registry / profile is corrupt somehow. You could
try moving or renaming the windows profile for this user and then log back
in as the user to create a new profile. Also make sure the user has
sufficient permissions for Office to be installed and run?
