[install Pub 2003/ Office 2000 present]

The disc is a monthy old. I installed pub 2003 on a desktop with this disc.
That computer later had as motherboard issue (unrelated). I'm now trying to
install pub 2003 on a laptop since the desktop is toast.

Is this a new disk?

Did you get that copy of Publisher with another computer? If so, you can't
install it. It stays with the other computer, even if it is toast, and
that's why OEM software costs less.
