Office 2007 and Vista RC1 (5600)

[Jeff Patton]

I downloaded all the Office 2007 Beta 2 files back when it was still a free
download, and have sucessfully downloaded it on multiple builds of Vista, as
well as XP. I recently extracted the files into a directory so I could burn a
CD that had Office 2007, and I think that is my problem.
When I insert the CD and run setup.exe I receive the following message:
Setup cannot continue because a critical file is not available or corrupt.
What am I missing?

Thanks for your time and patience,

Hi Jeff,

What was the steps and command line you used to extract the files and when you copied them to a CD did you put them at the root
folder of the CD? From the error you're getting it could be that the extraction was not successful, but are you running the CD in
the samw machine you created it on or another?

I dont' remember the name of the executable that i downloaded, I have it
somewhere, but here is the jist:
nameofapp.exe /extract:c:\off2k7
copy the contents of the directory onto blank cd using nero
i'm going to try and install it on another machine later today, but that is
all i did. there were no error's reported back to me before, during or after
the extraction, no errors reported back to me from nero.
I created the cd on my desktop at work, and attempted the install on my
desktop at home. I wonder if there is something that is preventing this type
of install, I just attempted to install Sharepoint Designer, and it got much
farther, asking for the cd key, appeared to copy files, then this error came
up:
MIcrosoft Office Sharepoint Designer 2007 (Beta) encountered an error during
setup. Error 2711. AN internal error has occurred.
