Office does not come on a Win2000 CD, so if Office and Win2000 is on the
same CD, you have a special CD that came with the Compaq and included
everything (though I find it difficult to believe that Office and Win2K
would fit on the same CD.) If that is the case, you definitely have no
legitimate license to install that copy of Office on any other machine.
Whether it is technically feasible is even in doubt, but...

Can you please describe the CD and it's contents in more detail? What are
the main folders on the CD?

Good Afternoon:Can I setup microsoft office only from a windows 2000 CD?
Now
this CD was an original Compaq 2000 setup. I have a laptop that did not
come
with office; just Windows XP pro! Can I load just the office from the 2000
CD? if so what do I need to do? Please explain.Thanks
