Insert Microsoft Office XP Small Business disk

I get the following window, usually when looking for a file

The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-Rom or other removeable
disk that is not available.

Insert the 'Microsoft Office XP Small Business' disk and click OK.

I have a Vista machine. My previous machine was Windows ME. PC Mover
was used to move from ME to Vista, but Microsoft Office XP was not
able to be moved.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this message? It doesn't seen to
cause any problems, but it is a nuisance.

Thanks. Al

Re: Insert Microsoft Office XP Small Business disk

It sounds like some file you are attempting to open is associated with an
Office application.
When you click the file, it tries to open Word, Excel or such and the
installer looks for the files to install the program.

The problem seems to be with Windows Installer. The error displays
whenever I open Explorer. Al
