Office2000 install

When trying to install MS Office 2000 into my new computer, running XP, I am coming across an error. It says that there is an error reading from a file and to verify that the file exists. The name of the file is "BADNWS_S.POT "

It only gives the option of retry or cancel. When I hit retry, it looks for about a minute and pops up with the same error message.

I've already gone through MSCONFIG and disabled a lot of the un-needed startup apps, suchas Norton Antivirus and aything else that might interfere. I don't know what else to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

It actually doesn't give me the option to ignore the file. I was using a copy of the cd and it was giving me problems. I tried running a custom install only installing word, excel, and the converters and filters and it would give me an error about another file. I tried this with two different copies.

Anyway, I got ahold of an original and did the custom install as mentioned above, and I ran into no problems what so ever. Thanks for the help and the welcome though.
