Office Pro 2003 requires original installation source

[Al]

Hi,

Everytime I try to install Office Pro 2003 on my newly installed Windows XP
Media Edition 2005 HP DV9005US laptop, the installations hangs (after
entering the key) and finally prompts me to enter the location of the
original installation source.

To verify that the cd/cdrom isn't having an issue, please try to copy the
contents of the cd to a local folder and run setup from there.

Do you get the same error on the same file?
