Um, download from WHERE?
Just what was the URL from where you obtained this download?

Is there any text besides "INTERNAL ERROR 2908" ?

Did the download page mention any prerequisites on the OS,
such as a certain version of .NET ?

Have you tried asking in a group whose topic is Office ?

Hi Nate,

It happened when I was doing the install.
Within this problem title: "Internal Error 2908" is numerous errors.
Last night I tried installing OpenOffice.org and that error came up.
When it appeared, I began clicking on OK and went through every error until
there wasn't anymore.
The installation continued and was successful.
It is just so weird.
At the beginning of last week all was well with Windows XP Home Edition 2002.
Then out of the blue this "Internal Error 2908" came into the picture.
I would appreciate whatever help you could offer.
Thank you.

Howdy,

I was downloading from the Microsoft Website. They had a 60 free trial on.
The error actually occurred when I was trying to install the Microsoft
Office Home Edition 2007.
Within the Internal Error 2908 are numerous number of errors.
Last night I successfully installed OpenOffice.org by clicking on the OK
button and bypassing all of the Internal Errors 2908.
It is so weird.
This problem occurred in the early part of last week.
I have never had an issue like this one.
Would appreciate any help you could give me.
Thank you.
