jdub,
My first thought is that you may not have a full version of Project
2003. If it is simply an upgrade, Windows will look for an earlier full
version of Project. If there is one, the update will be installed. If a
full version of an earlier version does not exist, the upgrade will not
install.

If you do have a full version of Project 2003, try searching for
previous versions and either delete or uninstall. Then try a clean
install of Project 2003.

Hope this helps.
