Hi Bill,
I'm assuming that Office 2002 and Office 2007 are sharing the same Windows boot partition but that the target for the main install
files are going to a different drive for 2007?
Office always puts a number of files in the \Windows and \Program Files\Common Files\ area on the Windows drive.
How did you do the decompression of the Office 2007 Beta files?
If you're using a 3rd party decompressor such as WinZip or WinRaR you may not be retaining the file structure. To extract the files
from the download into a CD 'image' structure see if these steps help.
===========
1. Use Start=>Programs=>Accessories=>Disk Cleanup
clear your Internet files and temp files.
2. Locate your 2007 Office Professional Beta 2
download file and note the folder/path location.
3. Create a new folder on your PC and note that
folder/path location.
4. Use Start=>Run , and on a single line type in
the following (using the path & file names from Step 2 & 3)
and leaving out the brackets
"drive:\Step2PathOfDownload\downloadfilename.exe" /extract:"Step3path"
example: (assuming you saved to a 'downloads' folder and created a new folder named Off2007ProB2CD1) the Start=>Run line would look
like this
"c:\downloads\OPPLUS-EN.EXE" /extract:"C:\Off2007ProB2CD1"
If the extraction is successful (you'll get a dialog box telling you it was after a few minutes) then run setup from your new 2007
Office folder, or if you wish first copy the new folder and its contents to a CD and run Setup from there. (Be sure to backup your
files and shutdown all other running apps including antivirus software before starting 2007 Office setup)
If the extraction doesn't succeed then the download may be damaged/corrupted.
Use Start=>Run and type
%temp%
and locate the Setup-xxxxx.log
(file) just created and see if it has any clues on where the extraction failed.
Post back with the results please.

I'm using Windows XP and this is the beta 2 of the Office 2007 Pro. control
panel has always been set to United States. I have office 2002 installed but
am trying to setup office 2007 to another harddrive. I have decompressed the
..EXE file so that it can be copied to a CD. Can this be the problem. If so
how do I get it copied to a CD. Thanks Bill >>
