Error Installing Office2000...HELP!!!

T

tal08

I have tried everywhere on the web and cannot find anything that will help
me figure this out. I just got a HP notebook that has Windows XP installed
on it. I am trying to install Office2000 and am having problems. I have use
the same Office 2000 disks on my other notebook with Win98SE installed and
it installed without any problems.
Now it starts to install but then I get the following error message:
"Error 1305, Error Reading From File D:\Windows\ShellNew\WINWORD8.DOC.
Verify that the file exists and that you can access it."
Well, I checked on the Office disk and the file does exist, however when
I double-click it, i get an error message saying it cannot open.
I have even tried to install disk 2 of Office2000 first and I get an
error message saying:
"Error 1305, Error Reading From File D:\Windows\ShellNew\MSPUB.PUB"
Does anybody know how to correct these problems?
Thanks
Chris

Method #1:
1. Clean the cd with warm water and soft cloth

Method #2:
1. Create a flat on another system on the network
2. Map a network drive path over to the shared flat folder
3. Install from the shared flat

Method #3:
1. Have customer burn a copy of the original media
2. Install from the burned media

NOTE: Burned media is typically not supported except
in a corporate
environment. However, the method of creating a burned cd
will allow the files to
decompress and copy across the disk, thereby allowing the
reading of the disk to
proceed more freely. This has been witnessed in several
cases where the burned
media the customer created would install without error
when the original Microsoft
media errors out to the compression of the cab files.
