Hi,
I am trying to re-install office XP after uninstalling the program as i was having trouble with it.
However my CD keeps poping up with the error:-
The feture you are trying to install is on a network resourse that is unavailable.
Click ok to try again or enter a path for "MSCTF.msp" in the box provided.
Hmmm... i have used the disk many times before to reinstall and install once new computer purchased.
Please help....

Where it says enter a path for MSCTF.msp in the box provided, try entering
D:\
where D is the drive letter of your cd drive and press enter

No hardware change. everything is as it was b4.
I have only instsalled a digital camer but that is wouldn't effect it.
I have tried reinstalling windows ME just incase of any problems with corrupt or missing files.

Go for the obvious.
Well, what else is there to do when you don't know the answer?
It could be worth cleaning the installation CD, and also putting a cleaning disc in the drive.
I had a slow burn yesterday (keep it clean) followed by a failure to recognise the newly created CD, did what I've suggested above, and everything's ok again.
It's worth a try.
