I tried to install Microsoft Office 2007 on my PC and received the following
error:

ERROR 1311. Source file not found: D\SKU113.cab. Verify that the file
exists and that you can access it.

Can anyone help me here. I am using Microsoft XP.

What service pack level is Windows XP at? It must be at least SP-2.

Also, if you copy the CD to your hard drive and install from there, does it
work?

Thanks for your help Millie. I am using XP service pack 2. I am a novice so
how would I copy the CD to my hard drive and install from there?

Create a folder on your desktop called Office 2007. Put in your DVD or CD,
whichever you have. Stop the automatic installation. Right click on your
DVD or CD drive and select Explore. Once the DVD/CD is displayed, select
all (Edit->Select All) then Edit->Copy to folder - select the folder you
created on the desktop.

Double click the folder on your desktop, browse to setup.exe and double
click on that. Follow the prompts.

Keep your CD/DVD AND the case for when you may need to reinstall or repair
Office.

Is this an upgrade from Office 2003? This error also occurs when the local
installation source from Office 2003 is corrupted. Simply inserting the
Office 2003 CD and clicking OK after this error pops up usually allows
Windows Installer to complete the uninstall of Office 2003 so the install of
Office 2007 can continue.

This one worked for me. No idea why and i am really annoyed that when I
sumply put in an Outlook 2007 disk i get a silly and inexplicable message
like this. Why can't MS be more user friendly?
