Hi,
The first part of the error message is telling you that a file on your Cd in corrupt/damaged (and there could be many more) you can try to make a new Cd by coping the Cd to a file and downloading the damaged file and replacing it then trying to install of that file. if you get more problem files, download etc... The second part of the message " This could be caused by installing other messaging software." I have no idea what that could mean or what another messaging software has to do with Microsoft Office.
Another potability is that you have a virus. Just because you have a good virus detector and you scan your PC every day does not mean that your PC is clean. Even if your PC is clean, it can not hurt to check and rule out that problem. A very good site here is located at:-

If you have tried everything there and you are still having problems, then maybe a Windows repair is required. If you want to repair your installation with your Operating System disk, go to:-

Hi kenobis,
You have jumped on someone's thread with a new problem, you should start a new thread if what I tell you now won't help.

As you have lost your installation disk you might have to go and buy a new one but.... I am not sure how to get there but when the message pops up ""you may be a victim ..... not genuine" there is a place to click here to resolve this, click it and follow the instructions and hopefully you can resolve your problem there. If not, contact Microsoft by phone (search internet for numbers) for activation and they will assist you to resolve this.
If you want to post anything further here, please start a new thread of your own and someone will try to help you OK.

Good luck
