Getting Windows Installer when trying to open Excel files

I have suddenly begun experiencing a problem when trying to open Excel files
or the application itself. I get Windows Installer saying it's trying to
load Office XP Small Business, and asking for the CD. I don't have the CD,
as my PC came loaded with Office already on it. When I subsequently click
"Cancel", I get an "Error 1706... setup cannot find the required files".

I have not done anything new to my PC, and suddenly this problem. What gives?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
AMC
 
Contact the company who sold you the PC, I don't think MS give any support
for OEM products
