Visio 2007 Install Error

[WordRay]

I'm attempting to install Visio 2007 from a CD on a new Dell computer with an
external Media Bay with a CD/DVD in the Media Bay.

I'm getting the following error: "Setup cannot find Visio.en-us\VisioLR.cab.
Browse to a valid installation source, and then click OK." in a dialogue box
with a browse function in it.

The folder and the file are on the CD I'm installing from. However, when I
click on the folder specified, ...\Visio.en-us, I get a dialogue box saying
"Invalid Location."

If I uninstall Visio on my old notebook, then reinstall it (old notebook has
internal CD/DVD), it works fine and the error doesn't appear.

I'm getting a similar error trying to install Office Pro 2007 but on a
different .CAB file. MS OneNote and MS Project have installed fine, though.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

It's possible that there is a copy issue with that new drive and the cd.
Try making a copy of the CD contents into a folder on the laptop hard
drive, and see if you can install from it. You may have to manually locate
and run the "Setup.exe" program.
