Message: [QUOTE="Noel Prior, post: 7232723"] Got the same error when I tried an install with Office 2003 and 2007 Beta 1 already on my system (No I didn't RTFM!) Completely my mistake, should of removed Beta 1 first. It did install first time, but thrashed all the app icons/menus, basically unusable, tried to re-install, error 1706. Cause is not being able to find the installation MSI files in my case (it does not tell you this in the normal install). Quick fix is to do an administrative install with the /a option, this runs thru the setup allowing you to choose what to install, then you are given a chance to point the installation to the msi files it cannot find when you do a normal install. After that run the administrative install, works fine. [/QUOTE]
