Office 2007 install fails with a setup cannot continue message

This is a strange one. I just tried re-burning a CD from the ISO, on my
XP x64 system with Nero 7.5. BTW I have NEVER had to burn at less than
40x, never had a problem before this.

Anyway, burned it at 8x, which is the slowest speed offered on this
system. I tried installing the CD on my XP x64 system, and I got this
same error. The verification pass by Nero passed successfully.

Vista had nothing to do with it, I doubt Nero has anything to do with
it. It seems this has to be a bug int he SETUP program, that just can't
handle something on a CD burned somehow.

I don't think that is the case as I (eventually) burnt this to CD using a
Windows XP computer fitted with the same LGE burner and the using the same
Nero 7.5.

I am still baffled by this. I will try the slow speed burn on Vista and
report back my findings too.

I'll also check to see if there are driver or firmware updates for my burner
too.

That seems to incriminate Nero then.

Same thing here. Wrote the iso to cd using Nero - No go. Extracted to HD
using isobuster and it installed.

I did several experiments yesterday comparing how Nero 7.5.7.0 was burning
on Windows XP and Windows Vista computers to see if I could work out what is
different. Both computers have the same LGE GCE-4167B DVD-RW drive with the
same level of firmware.

When I burn on the on the XP machine, Nero reports various burn speeds
throughout the burn cycle, commencing slowly (around 12X) until it reaches
around 32X at the end of the burn. This seems correct to me because CDs are
burnt starting from the inside tracks where the rotational speed is
relatively slow compared to the outer tracks. To test this theory was
correct, I burnt a 720MB avi file file (that uses nearly all the available
disk) and that started at 12X and finished at 36X. I am sure that had this
been a full disk, the outer tracks would have reached 40X - the maximum
speed the drive burns to CD.

On the Vista computer, this didn't happen. Nero reports that the drive is
burning at 40X throughout the burn.

My conclusion is that Nero is at fault when running on a Vista platform.

However, it does seem to burn DVDs correctly - as was proved when I burnt
Vista ISO. Had it messed up the VISTA burn, I would probably have got to
this conclusion MUCH earlier!

Except I did all my burning on XP x64, as I have for 2 years. I have not
done any Nero work on Vista.
