Well, George...if this is indeed a legal copy of Office XP, there is no =
way
you can shut off or remove the autorun.inf file from the CD cuz the CD =
is
read only...so search the CD for autorun.inf and use that file to
install.... I found this in the Windows XP help files...it doesn't refer =
to
Office XP but maybe this will help you....but if this is NOT a legal =
copy of
Office, please take the question to another group...thanks:
SYMPTOMS
When you insert the Microsoft Office CD, the Autorun feature may not =
run,
even when you manually run the Autorun.exe file located on the CD.=20
CAUSE
This behavior occurs if you have already installed Microsoft Office on =
your
computer, either from the Office installation CD, from floppy disks, or =
from
a network server.=20
This behavior occurs because the Autorun feature is only designed to run =
if
Office is not already installed (for example, the first time you run =
Office
Setup or when you run Office Setup after using the Remove All button in
maintenance mode). The Autorun feature displays a window that allows you =
to
install Office, display the online Getting Results book, or browse the
Office CD. However, you can still perform each of these actions without
using the Autorun feature.=20
NOTE: If you insert the Microsoft Office 97 CD and Microsoft Office 97 =
is
already installed, a window for the CD contents will automatically =
appear
instead of the Autorun running. This behavior differs from that of =
Microsoft
Office 7.0 for Windows. If you insert the Office 7.0 CD and Office 7.0 =
is
already installed, no window appears and nothing happens.=20
WORKAROUND
Although you cannot run the Autorun feature again on the Office CD, you =
can
run Setup, display the Getting Results book, or explore the contents of =
the
CD by doing the following:=20
Insert the Office CD in the CD-ROM drive.=20
Start Windows Explorer.=20
For Office 95, in the All Folders list (left window in Windows =
Explorer),
click the CD-ROM drive, such as (D:). To do this Take this
action
----------------------------------------------------
Run Setup Double-click the Setup icon in the
Contents list (right window in
Windows Explorer).
=20
Display "Getting Double-click the Cdonline folder in
Results" the Contents list (right window in
Windows Explorer), and then double-
click the Results icon
=20
Explore the CD Double-click the desired folder in
contents the Contents list (right window in
Windows Explorer).
For Office 97, in the All Folders list (left window in Windows =
Explorer),
click the CD-ROM drive, such as (D:). To do this Take this
