Default Installation source for this product is unavailabe

I'm trying to install Office XP on my new computer, but all I get is an error
message that says "The information source for this product is not available.
Verify that the source exists and that you can access it."

Would appreciate any help you can give as I need to get this girl up and
running.

Thanks in advance.

- Try to copy the files from the CD to your hard drive and install from there.
- Test the installation media on another computer. If that works and the
comptuers are networked, share the CD drive and install over the network.
