Error 1706

When I try either to repair or add/remove features. In the process, I get a
dialog box that asks to insert the Windows 2000 CD. When I click on
"Browse", and I get "data1.msi" (it says that in the file name part), it
says that it needs the required files. Can someone help?

You receive an "Error 1706. No valid source could be found" error message when you

What is the whole error message?

The error message says:

"Error 1706: Setup cannot find required files to continue Setup" I am not
switching CDs. I am just trying to install a component. And then a dialog
box comes up to insert the CD or other removable disk for the continuation
of the process. When I click on Browse, it says "data1.msi" in the "file
name" part, and there is only one file type in the "file type" part. Since
I am installing a component that excludes Publisher, I double-click on
DATA1.msi. Then it says that it is not the right place. It also says to
make sure you have permissions to access the media or drive. Then, I keep
on trying again and again. Finally, I clicked on Cancel, and I got Error
1706. Can someone help?

Try this

Do you have all the Office service packs?
