I just ordered Microsoft Office Enterprise 2007 through my employer and now
that I am ready to install it, my computer (Windows XP) does not read the
disk! I have tried to open it through My Computer as well as being patient
and waiting for the computer to open it on its own...nothing is working.
PLEASE HELP
Thank you

Is your Office Enterprise a DVD or CD?

You need a DVD player. They're inexpensive these days and even tho I'm quite
"financially conservative" when it comes to hardware, I'm telling you -
"It's time to upgrade".

Well, you'll need to purchase a DVD drive. They're not that expensive.

Hi Mike,

As you don't have a DVD drive at present there is a trial version of Office 2007 Enterprise available, but if I recall it only works
with the trial product key rather than the Home Use key
http://microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2D1189BF-D86A-4ACF-9DCC-4D61F500AD6D

If you have a DVD drive at work or know someone with a PC that has one you may want to backup the contents of Office 2007 Enterprise
onto a USB thumb drive (I'm assuming your PC has USB ports) and install from there or for quicker performance copy the thumbdrive
contents to the hard drive and install from there. However, as more 'stuff' is DVD based these days, having one could be a good
thing as well :)

===========
Thank you Tom and JoAnn for your advice.
