It seems like it's looking for the CD you used to install in the first place. Does it ask for it?

I put the CD in and prepared to unistall through it, no messages asking for info from the CD itself.

Have you changed the location of the original installation directory? If you have office 97 as well then then you would have specified a different folder location from within C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office. When you uninstall, the handler looks for the files in a particular (default) directory and if they have been moved then you get the error codes that you mention.
