Cd drive will not read cd office 2003 have prouduct

To resolve this error permanently, you must repair the Office 2003 installation. This resolution is intended for advanced computer users. If you are not comfortable with advanced troubleshooting, you might want to ask someone for help or contact Support. For information about how to do this, visit the following Microsoft Web site: http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/ (http://support.microsoft.com/contactus/) Repair the Office 2003 installation To repair the Office 2003 installation, use the Local Installation Source Tool. You can download the Local Installation Source Tool from the following Microsoft Office 2003 Resource Kit Web site: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=10FA7AA3-695B-42C3-9045-B812BA0FED3E&displaylang=en (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=10FA7AA3-695B-42C3-9045-B812BA0FED3E&displaylang=en) After you have downloaded the tool, double-click the LISTool.exe program file on your hard disk to start the Setup program. Follow the instructions on the screen to complete the process.

The Local Installation Source Tool is a wizard that helps manage your Local Installation Source (LIS) on computers that are running Microsoft Office 2003. The LIS is the group of installation files that Setup copies to a hidden folder on your computer when you install Office 2003 from a CD or from a compressed CD image on a network. The LIS Tool lets you enable or disable the LIS, and to move the MSOCache folder to a new volume.

Note If these methods do not work, the files in the \MSOCache\All Users\download code folder may not match the files on the CD that you provided. Make sure that the CD that you inserted matches the product that is being requested. For example, the product that is already installed on the computer may be Microsoft Office Professional Edition 2003. However, the CD may contain files for Microsoft Office Professional Enterprise Edition 2003. If this is the case, remove the Microsoft Office product, and then install the product again from the available CD.

Unless you can find a seller on eBay or Craig's List that will sell you a genuine copy of Microsoft Office 2003, including a genuine product-key, there is no way to do so.

Instead, download the _free_ Open Office software, from www.OpenOffice.org
and install it, because it can read and write documents formatted by Word 2003.

Sounds like you need to locate the proper driver for your CD drive. The windows XP driver won't work with Windows 7.

very vague question, but typically , locate 2003 cd. insert disk , follow on screen prompts. if autoload is not working. with the disk inserted, browse the CD using "my computer "..... CD or DVD drive.... locate setup.exe icon (typically blue computer icon) double click to launch the installer. ....follow onscreen prompts. Please note office 2003 is getting old now., be sure to google "microsoft compatability pack" download and install that too. hope that helps Cheers

Download the Microsoft Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel and Powerpoint file formats from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=941b3470-3ae9-4aee-8f43-c6bb74cd1466&displaylang=en
and install it on system which has Microsoft Office -2003. Now u can read the files that has been saved in Office-2007.

This is the download link of Ms-Office download it. Ms-word comes in the package named Microsoft Office from Microsoft Corporation.
And use winrar to to join all files if it comes in parts. After join all parts it become a .ISO file just burn it using nero on cd or dvd. Or Install Virtual cd software or Alcohol or deamon tools these 2 software are used to play images files like .ISO,VC4,image files .images are virtual cd/dvd copy of physical cd/dvd.These days these are used very much becuse some game or big softwares require physical cd/dvd of it all the time to play application smoothly so we can create aa virtual cd/dvd of the disk. Later we can burn to any amount of cd/dvds.

Hello.

Unless you can borrow an external CD drive with a USB connector, you would need to contact Microsoft and give them your Office 2003 key and they may allow you to download a copy.

Actually, it might be worth it to purchase an external CD drive. I've seen them priced from $20 - $100.

Hope this helps.

First do this
To resolve this behavior, start the Setup program for Office. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Insert the Microsoft Office 2003 CD in your CD drive or DVD drive.
2. If the Setup program does not start automatically, locate the Setup.exe file on the CD, and then double-click the file to start Setup.
3. After the Setup window appears, cancel Setup, and then respond to the prompts to exit Setup.

Note You do not have to complete the Setup program. Setup fixes the error condition when it is first invoked.
If it doesn't help follow these steps.
go to add/remove programs via control panel
the go to office 2003
select "change".
Select repair
You will be asked for the installation CD. Please insert it before start this procedure.
Then do a repair and follow the instructions
Thanks

Good Luck

You can go to Microsofts website to download but it will be expensive. You would be better off buying an external CD/DVD ROM drive. It is used with a USB so it just plugs right in.Then you will have a drive for later if you need to install something.

Your CD reader cann't read the file 0156...cab, may be the CD has a little damage, the file is corrupted or the CD reader is failing.
1.- Try with another Installation CD of office 2003.
2.- If the problem continue try with another CD reader.
