Hi, Michael,

Without original installation media, your best bet is to apply the Office
2000 Update from this article:

835220 - Office 2000 Update: February 10, 2004:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;835220

This helps mitigate the need for the original CDs.

and it (the first one) seems to be doing something, but after 30-45 seconds
dialog requesting Office CD or folder appears, must press cancel, which then
backs out the change. It appears the "cancel" is what causes the failure.
