Default Enterprise 2007 and Project 2007 install problem


I am rolling out Office Enterprise to about 8000 users. Some of these
users will have Project 2007 on their boxes. The deployment is silent
and running from a locally cached source (c:\msocache\allusers\....)

When there is no Project 2007 installed the install of Office goes fine
(including upgrading from 2003) this is all silent with no need for user
interaction. The problem I am noticing is that when Project 2007 is
installed I get a popup asking if I would like to install Office
Enterprise or Office Standard. If I select Enterprise the install
continues and works with no errors.

First - Why is it doing this?
Second - How can I get this to remain as silent?

Happy to provide additional details if anyone can help on this one.

Thanks

Office Enterprise to 8000 users ??

Strongly suggest that you call Microsoft for further info. You are covered for this type of technical help if you have at least 8000 Cals as you suggest. You are also probably have a tech guy from either MS or the reseller assigned to you because of this large volume.

Giving advice for a silent install on this volume would be foolish by anyone except the Tech at MS

The silent part is not the problem on 99% of the users.

I am caching the install source to local -- that is working fine

I am upgrading users from 2003 -- that is working fine

The install executes on the local machine and runs silently -- that is
working fine

The ONLY time a user see's a popup is if they have Project2007
installed (mabee 50 users in total)
