I am trying to install Office97 on a Win95 PC(Compaq DeskPro PIII 500). Right before the files start copying onto the hard drive, I get an "Acme setup cannot continue" error. Has anyone ever had this problem? This is a clean install (no previous version of Office installed.) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

End task (control, alt, delete) on all background applications except explorer and then try it again.

I'm not sure if this is correct but are you running the setup.exe file or are you running acme.exe or acmsetup.exe file? Make sure that the file you are trying to run is setup.exe and not either acme.exe or acmsetup.exe. Good luck!
