Try it:

  1. Start > Run
  2. type in box "PfadToOffice2003\Setup.exe" TRANSFORMS="PfadToOffice2003\Unattended.MST" /qb-
Run it and look if install is ok
Ok ..
during installation i get a box saying "preparing office instalation" and the nothing happens.
I did your command line instruction and it installed.. ok... so ..???
I am installing in VMware, not sure if this matters?
Thanks
VMware is good.

If it not installs over Start > Run, must be problem with Unattended.MST. I don't know another rieson.

well i have been trying everything, but with no sucess, still i managed to get it to install if instead of burning the iso i use it under vmware (mounted iso) it installs.
I'm not sure if this helps you. Can it be something to do with %cdrom% variables ???

Without this variable work nothing !
I had the same problem. I was able to fix mine.  I change my setting.txt file to read this:

"%cdrom%Software\office2003\setup.exe" TRANSFORMS=Unattended.MST" /QB-

Goodluck
hope it work for you too.
Please tell me Unattended.MST - that this?
