I think I'm working on a computer that's cursed:
1) Did a fresh install of XP Pro. Got all service packs/security updates.
2) Installed Office 2000 Professional using the admin account (no other
accounts created at this point)
3) Created 2 limited user accounts
When I start Word or Excel from the admin account, or user 1, all is normal.
When I do the same for user 2, I see a dialog saying "Windows Installer -
Preparing to Install". Then, I get the following message dialog 3 times:
"Error 1706. No valid source could be found for Microsoft Office 2000 SR-1
Professional. The Windows installer cannot continue."
After I click away the dialog the third time (and it's always 3 times), the
program (Word or Excel) starts, and keeps showing the EULA message, as if
this were the first time the program was started. I click away the EULA
message and everything's normal until the next time I start Word or Excel.
What is going on here????? The programs are installed, and work fine in two
other accounts, but not this one.
