Hi Chris,
If you've shutdown all other running software,
utilities and antivirus before running setup
and if you're able to run Detect & Repair successfully
from the Word 2000 Help menu and if Office 2000 was
originally installed from the CDS (rather than an
Office Admin point) then you can sometimes get this
error if the MS Installer has
become corrupted or, unforturnately, if you're still
using MS Installer v1.1 rather than v2.x

==========
BTW, this is on a Windows 98 SE machine, with all critical
windows updates applied. Also running Norton AntiVirus
and ZoneAlarm Pro. NAV's auto-protect was disabled, and
ZAP "shut down" (I think this only stops the GUI, not
the "vector engine"), during the following attempt. After
posting last night, I un-installed Office (both the disk 1
and disk 2 parts), then re-installed it. I managed to
download Office 2000 SP3 as a .exe file. When I tried to
apply it, I got error 1328 again --- this time complaining
about a file named something like PHOTOED.EXE.
Still unhappy.>>
