I reinstalled Win 98 on Machine. I attempted to re install Office 2000. I can install disk CD2 but not the disk CD1. An error message keeps poping up saying Windows installer package may not be valid. I tried opening DATA1.MSI on install CD but no luck. Need help big time.

did you get all the latest windows update files for windows 98? the windows installer may be old, and not compatible with the office 2000 installation wizard....i'm not really sure if that's it though or not.
