Problem with setup.ini and Office Pro 2003

[Scott Walters]

Hi there: I went to install Office Pro 2003 and didn't
get very far. Message came back something along the lines
of missing or corrupt setup.ini. I found the file on the
CD and was unable to open it with anything.

My two alternatives would appear to be that the installer
is objecting to my SP level or the file is indeed
corrupt. I am installing to a machine with WIn2k and, I
think, SP3

Ideas anyone.

Check control panel, system icon. It will tell you what sp level you are
at. Office 2003 requires at least SP-2.
