I cannot install my Microsoft office professional 2003 on my new windows vista laptop. I have uninstalled the trial version of microsoft office that came with the computer and when I put in the install disk the error message reads "error executing file. E:\office11-disc1-professional\setup.exe the requested operation requires elevation." What do I do?

I put in the disk and the error message prevents me from going further. Also I have windows vista as my operating system.

Hello,

This is caused by the increased security measures built into Vista now,

Lets try this,

1. go to control panel
2. Open the Users panel
3. Click "Turn User Account Control On or Off"
4. Uncheck the box next to "User User Account Control (UAC) to help protect
your computer."
5. Click OK

Then try to install the program again.
