OFFICE PRO 2000

[SLH]

I AM TRYING TO INSTALL OFFICE PRO 2000 ONTO A COMPUTER THAT HAS WINDOWS XP. AFTER I ENTER THE KEY CODE AND PRESS ENTER I GET A BOX THAT SAYS PRODUCT COMPLIANCE CHECK, "SETUP FAILED TO LOCATE A VALID QUALIFYING PRODUCT ON YOUR MACHINE. PLEASE SELECT THE DRIVE WHERE A QUALIFYING PRODUCT CAN BE FOUND.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. COULD IT BE THAT I'M TRYING TO DOWNLOAD A 2000 PRODUCT ONTO XP? WHAT DO I NEED TO DO?

sounds like you are trying to install an upgrade version -
read the instructions on the box - and supply the relevant
qualifying product eg in your case something like office 97
