Hi:
I'm having an issue installing Office 2003 on the above laptop. This is a fully licensed version provided to me by my company. I've used this disk to install the software successfully, many times before. After inserting the disk, the setup programs autostarts without issue. It prompts me for the CD key, which I enter successfully. It proceeds without issue, through the validation. After a short while, set up halts with the message "Waiting for cabinets to be cached to local installation source" After which it displays the file "PR308246.Cab" After letting it sit for 5 minutes or so, it comes back with a message stating that the installation file is not found. It asks me to browse for the file which I tried - but no file level entries appear on the CD. Just as an aside, I disabled just about everythng in startup and tried to reinstall. Still no success. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Try running the utility found here. It has solved Office install issues for me in the past.
