KB969613 Failure

This is a security update for Office Professional 2007. I'm running XP Pro
SP3, IE8 and Office Pro 2003.

It won't install. Tried manual install and error message said "Detection
failed - this could be due to a corrupted installation database"

Do I need to install this even if it's for 2007?

I have the original install disks for Office.

It's also an update for Office Compatibility Pack for Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint 2007 File Formats:

Description of the security update for the 2007 Office system and for the
Compatibility Pack for the 2007 Office system: June 9, 2009:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969613

If Office Compatibility Pack (SP2) is installed, you should install
KB969613.

Tip: Insert your Office 2003 CD into the appropriate drive bay before
attempting to install the update again.

If no joy, see if you can install the fullfile version manually:
