SKU112.CAB

S

SallySue

I just bought an HP Pavilion a1560n. I didn't get any CD's with it. It had
Microsoft Office 2003 pre-installed on it. I purchased a product key and when
I enter it, I get an error message that it can't find SKU112.CAB. How do I
fix this?

Who did you pay for Office? You should have the Office CD - that's where
that file is located. It may also be on your your hard drive's Local Install
Source. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830168/ for more info on that.
This particular question has been asked MANY times.

The following has also been suggested in past threads.

If you do not have the installation cd and want to solve this issue, follow
these steps: (works most of the time with all sku.cab files)

1. Click on start==>run==>type "excel /s" without quotations and click ok.

2. Once Excel is up in safe mode with the error message in front, hold down
ctrl+Alt+Delete keys on your keyboard to bring the task manager up.

3. Click on the processes tab==>look for msiexec.exe (only the one next to
your user name), click on it and end the process.

4. Excel should be running without an error message now==>close Excel in
safe mode==>reopen it one more time in safe mode to check if it is opening
with no error message.

5. Close Excel /s and open Excel normally, it should work fine.

I purchased the product key online. As I stated previously I do not have a
CD. This was pre-loaded on the PC. I 'KNOW' it was asked MANY times
previously but none of the fixes worked hence asking again. Guess no one
knows how to fix the problem. Thanks for trying

By golly, JoAnn's a pretty smart gal. Your "excel /s" advice worked and ms
office is now working fine. Thanks.

I know you bought it "online" but from whom?

I gave you several suggestions below the part about it being on the disk.
Did you try any of those?

I purchased the product key online. As I stated previously I do not have a
CD. This was pre-loaded on the PC. I 'KNOW' it was asked MANY times
previously but none of the fixes worked hence asking again. Guess no one
knows how to fix the problem. Thanks for trying

Who did you pay for Office? You should have the Office CD - that's where
that file is located. It may also be on your your hard drive's Local
Install
Source. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830168/ for more info on
that.
This particular question has been asked MANY times.

The following has also been suggested in past threads.

If you do not have the installation cd and want to solve this issue,
follow
these steps: (works most of the time with all sku.cab files)

1. Click on start==>run==>type "excel /s" without quotations and click
ok.

2. Once Excel is up in safe mode with the error message in front, hold
down
ctrl+Alt+Delete keys on your keyboard to bring the task manager up.

3. Click on the processes tab==>look for msiexec.exe (only the one next
to
your user name), click on it and end the process.

4. Excel should be running without an error message now==>close Excel in
safe mode==>reopen it one more time in safe mode to check if it is
opening
with no error message.

5. Close Excel /s and open Excel normally, it should work fine.

I just bought an HP Pavilion a1560n. I didn't get any CD's with it. It
had
Microsoft Office 2003 pre-installed on it. I purchased a product key
and
when
I enter it, I get an error message that it can't find SKU112.CAB. How
do I
fix this?
