I installed Office 2K premium. Then during a service pack 2 update I got a W2K blue screen. *ATi Radeon CD does not like being installed on a SCSI CD-rom.* I rebooted and lots of Office 2K files were corrupt. Tried to reinstall it but I keep getting this error:
"The installation source for this product is not available.
Verify the source exists and you can access it."

I downloaded the Office 2000 uninstall program and that didn't help. I played around w/ the Setup commands which are found here:
Here

The setup /a options seems to put me into the setup but it doesn't repair the files.

I always get the weird errors =).

Nevermind I solved it.
Went through the registry searched for data1.msi and deleted a few registry entries.

*ATi Radeon CD does not like being installed on a SCSI CD-rom.*

I hear that one loud and clear. Instead of the BSOD, I got an entire blood redscreen.

Had to reformat, reload win2k, then win2ksp1, then Via 4-in-1 4.25, then Microsoft Via SP2, then DirectX 8.0 (from MS), and then the windows 2000 Radeon driver from the website.

No problems now:p
