I downloaded office 2007. When I try to run the install program it has the
status bar that says extracting files, at the completion of which I get a
message: "The installation of this package failed." I've restarted the
computer, re-downloaded the file, same problem each time. I'm currently
running Windows XP Pro 2002. Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

I'm also having the same problem. I'm installing from a disk which I've used
before to sucessfully install on other machines, so there's no problem with
the disk. I'm running a triple boot MacBook (Mac/Linux/Windows XP), it's a 64
bit machine... Might this be the problem? Any ideas much appreciated.

For those that still can't install and need similar software - should look
into OpenOffice. It's free to download and it's really quite good (does 95%
of what MS version does). It's just a shame to have paid for software and
then not use it.

Cheers
