Office 2003 Won't install

M

Mike

When I click setup I get "The specified program requires a
newer version of Windows". I am running Win2000 Version
5.0 (Build 2195: Service Pakc 4). I have reinstalled the
service pack twice.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks for the note, but I don't even get to a point where I can choose components. This error occurs immediately after I click setup.exe on the CD.

Any other ideas?

Thanks.

Experiencing the same problem here too.

Running Windows 2000 Professional SP4
Trying to install Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003

Immediately after running SETUP.EXE on the Microsoft Office Professional
Edition 2003, I get the error:

The specified program requires a newer version of Windows.


All I can do is click the "OK" button and setup exits.


I did NOT get a chance to select ANY components. Again, the error appears
immediately after running SETUP.EXE on the Microsoft Office Professional
Edition 2003.



I don't wish to spend any more money on a newer version of Windows (i.e.
Windows XP) just because a program won't install when it should considering
the fact that I DO meet the system requirements.

requirements for Office 2003", which indicates that certain components of
Office 2003 require Windows XP or later. Did you by chance select one of
these components?
