office 2003 patch

[Lou]

I installed a new hard drive. Copied all files from the
old to the new drive. Everything works...but I cannot get
updates for office 2003. I cannot delete it and reinstall
it. I get the lollowing error message.
Windows Installer patch files (.MSP files) from
previously applied Office updates are missing from the
\Windows\Installer hidden directory on your computer. MSP
files are stored on your computer after update
installation completes because they need to be referenced
for future update operations. If the files are missing
you will not be able to apply Office updates. You may
also be unable to uninstall Office products as a result
of the same problem. Please contact Microsoft Product
Support for assistance.
How do I fix the problem or get hold of microsfot suppot
for assistance???
