I am trying to install office 97 on an xp machine. The install disk doesn't
run and doesn't show up on "My Computer" cd drive. How do I do this?

The CD Rom is working. I tried music and recent data cd's and they run fine.
The office 97 cd runs perfectly on my windows 98 machine but won't run or
even be detected on my xp machine.

Right-click the CD, click explore and start the setup manually. Try to install
in safe mode. Disable your anti-virus software.
