I tried installing office XP many times in administrator mode as well.
I cant get it to work.
After installation, when i try to start the office applications, it prompts me for installation CD. This should not happen. Even if I give it the CD, it tries to load but never fully loads and ends up doing nothing.
If I start internet explorer, I get prompt for the installation of Office XP also. And then the windows flashes very fast continually as if its opening and closing extra windows.
BTW I have upgraded to Office XP service pack 3 also to no avail.
Please advise.
EDIT: I would post pictures but I dont know where to upload.
