Office 2000 Premium SR1

Can anyone tell me why Office 2000 will not install on my
Windows 2000 machine? The installer starts running OK
until I get "Error 1305, Error reading from file:
D:\PFiles\MSOffice\Office\Bitmaps\Styles\GLOBE.WMF . Verify
that the file exits and that you can access it."
Thanks.
