Installing MS Office Professional 2003

My friend just got a new laptop and it came with Windows Vista installed on
it. She is trying to install MS Office Professional 2003 and got the
following error...

Error execiuting file. E:\Office111 - Disc 1 - Professional\SETUP.EXE The
requested operation requires elevation

Has this happened to anyone else? Can anyone please tell me what she's doing
wrong, if anything or if this is even compatible with Vista. I'd appreciate
any help.

Ok, tell your friend to insert the Office 2003 disc again, close the
Auto-run dialog. Click Start > Computer > open the Microsoft Office disk,
right click Setup and click Run as Administrator. Office 2003 should install
normally. Ensure that you install the latest Service Pack and patches after
installing Office 2003.

Thanks so much. I'll pass this info onto her.
