Vista Windows, Install XP MS-Office, Get Error 1608 Error?!?

[Mike]

Hi Everyone,

My PC has Vista window as OS. I have XP MS-Office Software I try to
install but every time I try, and after I type the 25 product key and
select drive E where the CD sits, I get so called Error 1608 whatever
that mean?

How to go around this?

Thanks,
Mike

If not, punch Error 1608 into your favourite search engine and wait for results.
