failed to locate a valid qualifying product (using full ver 2k Standard)
I am trying to move my Office 2K Standard (SR-1) from an
old machine with XP Home to a newer machine with XP Home. After entering the product key I get a message..."Setup failed to locate a valid qualifying product on your machine. Please select the drive where a qualifying product can be found". When I look for this error on Microsoft, it refers to upgrade versions needing a previous qualifying product. However, this is not an upgrade. It's the full version. P.S. If I try to set up using "SetupSE" I get message..."Setup has detected the following problems, please correct them and rerun setup: You do not have Microsoft Internet Information Server (IIS) 4.0 installed...". Help! |

Help! Sorry, but if you're receiving 1608 then it's an upgrade. You must have had a qualifying product on your system at some point - if you no longer have it then you must purchase Office again as you are no longer entitled to use the software. |

Actually, I was able to get it going. In the field where
it was asking me to pick the drive that had the qualifying info, I entered Drive D: (CD)which had the Full Version of Office 2K Standard (same one I was having issue with). It found the info that it missed the first time and installed fine. I would have been pretty ****ed if it did not work, because there was obviously no support for this error. -----Original Message----- Steve Bartosch wrote: I am trying to move my Office 2K Standard (SR-1) from an old machine with XP Home to a newer machine with XP Home.
