I am trying to install 2005 developer on Vista. Every time I try I just get
"Error 1706. Setup cannot find the required files. Check your connections to
the network, or CD-ROM drive. For potential solutions to this problem, see
c:\Program Files\Microsoft\OFFICE11\1033\SETUP.CHM".
The OWC11 configuration then fails. The log entry that seems to refer to the
error shows:

The above seems to be looking for Office 2003 web components. They do show
in Add/Remove Programs (or Programs and Features as it's called on Vista).
The machine is running Vista with Office 2007 and Business Contact Manager
for Outlook 2007 and Office Accounting BTR2.
This is my main development machine so having no SQL Dev environment is a
problem.
Any greatly appreciated.
