nateklomp Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Hiya,I've been banging around this problem for months (2-cd install, zipped entire admin install point--~300MB!--etc.), can anyone tell me why I can't get Office Shrink to work with Office 2000 on Windows 98 SE?It always seems to be working fine until ~80%, then "Cancel" button disappears and the install hangs. If I kill the process, shortcuts are in place but apps aren't installed. Using the full source+MST, installation is always successful.Perhaps it's having SP3 slipstreamed into my source? It's my only remaining guess...the same source is working fine on XP (yes, I used Office Shrink on a SP3-slipstreamed admin point, clean install of W98SE).Thanks, any input is appreciated!

tentonine Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 nateklompIn your Office Shrink target directory before starting shrink.Copy over from your source the file ie5setup.exe.Example ( office\ie\en\ie5setup.exe)Same structure target and source.Only seems to be a problem after slipstreaming sp3.

nateklomp Posted April 6, 2005 Author Share Posted April 6, 2005 Hiya,Thanks, works like a charm (except it can't install until after first logon, seems to kill W98Setup when running in "mini-windows" setup mode). Just what I needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
