Can you navigate to those disks with Windows Explorer to look at the
contents of the CDs?

Did those programs come with another computer?

Because that version of Office came with another computer, you cannot
install them on another computer. You need to purchase a full retail version
of Office. Since those versions are ancient, you'll have to get Office 2003.
