Or, better yet, go into the group policy editor and double-check the settings: Start->Run->gpedit.msc
Then check out: Computer Configuration->Administrative Templates->Windows Components->Windows Installer There are a bunch of settings there that could affect the Office 2k install. -Ryan -----Original Message----- From: Trent Shepherd [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, August 29, 2003 5:47 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: (OT) Office 2000 install Hi Michael Try this Check your settings here: Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to this key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\Installer] Create a new DWORD value, or modify the existing value, called "DisableMSI" and set it according to (0 = default, 1 = admin only, 2 = disabled).

I'm the system admin, I run the box, what's stopping me from doing an install here? The box was destroyed a while back and had a new version of windows laid ontop of the old version to work with the new hardware, which may be the problem somewhere. Any office or windows gurus with a clue?
