Office XP SP 1 - help

Hi I am trying to slip-stream SP1 into Office XP, however, when I run setup /a as instructed, I get a message along the lines that administrative install cannot be run from there but needs to be run from an original source.

Hi

Any ideas?

Thanks.

The first two articles will allow you to troubleshoot the installation:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q296603
http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q308490
Perhaps, most relevent, and I think what is happening is this which provides a workaround: http://support.microsoft.com/search/preview.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;Q280561

Hi

Thanks.. but the first two are about actual installations.. I haven't even gotten that far; and the latter link is about When You Try to Run Administrative Installation of Converter Pack (Q280561).. which I don't need to.

I am just wondering why a simple admin install wont work with "setup /a"

Thanks.

Mak.
