1305 Error installing Office 2000

[Liz]

I recently upgraded my computer to Win XP and have been
trying to reinstall Office 2000. It seems to begin the
installation OK but at the point were it says "Please wait
while windows configures Microsoft Office 2000" the bar
fills up about halfway. Then a pop up says "Error 1305.
Error reading from file:
C:\WINDOWS\System32\??? Verify that the file exists and
that you can acess it". I check System 32 folder and it
DOES exist, but every time I click Retry the same error
pops up. Can anyone help me with this?
