Installing Office

I am doing full standard installation of Office Enterprise 2007(new home use
product) onto my new laptop running Vista. NB Laptop does have a free 60 day
trial version of Office pre-installed. When I tried to install, I get error
message that it can't find a file (Publisher.en-us\PubLR.cab). It asks me to
Browse to a valid installation source and the click OK. I've trien selecting
my DVD drive (with Office CD in it) and also tried office files, C: drive,
etc, each time it tells me it is an invalid location. Would be grateful for
help - I'm normally quite competent at installing software! Thanks

Totally uninstall the trial and any activation wizard and reboot computer
before attempting install of any paid MS Office product.

Any further assistance with your Enterprise version needs to come from
either your IT department at your place of employment (through which you
purchased your Enterprise home use program suite) or Microsoft directly.

Try the following to uninstall your Office 2007 Trial

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928218

Also uninstall all references to Office including the purchased one that you tried
to install. When everything is uninstalled then try to install your purchased
version of Office

Remember to empty the temp file also from the install references
