      A Couple of Other Points….

      Before you try to troubleshoot the install, step back and look at two other (at least) more important questions…

      i. Does the laptop fulfill the system requirements for Office 2003 ?? Microsofts new packages are starting to get a little “demanding” for hardware and trying to install Office 2003 on a 266 Mhz Laptop with 64 Mbs of Memory may be a “no can do”.

      ii. Office 2003 has an activation process like Windows XP so depending on the EULA you may not be able to install it on 2 machines. If you are lucky they may have a provision for installing it on one “work” pc and one “home” pc.

      All things being equal, if the CD didn’t get scratched and the optical drive works in the laptop, and there are enough free resources (memory and HD space)there should be no issues with the install.

      Can we get make/model/stats on the laptop please ??
