setup program prompts for the Office 2000 CD every time...

[yleecoyote26]

Every restart of the computer, I am getting an Install of Office 2000. I
already have it on my computer. I run Win2000Pro. I have to click on the
Cancel 3 times to get it to stop and I don't have the CD for it. Everything
seems to be here and running fine so I don't know why it wants to reinstall
(install) it. How do i get it to STOP doing that ? When I do try to let
it I get the Error 1706 or to look for "data1.msi" . But so far nothing
seems to be helping it.

You need the CD.
