Microsoft Infopath 2010 Installation Error

Asked By james yorath 20 points N/A Posted on - 02/07/2013

Hello,

 

When I tried to upgrade my Office 2003 to Office 2010 Professional Edition in one of our XP machine I got the following error message:

"Microsoft Office Professional 2010(TEchnical Preview) encountered an error during setup. Error 1327. Invalid Drive F:"

Even though with this error Office 2010 got installed. I thought that the error occurred due to lower versions of office installed on my PC.

I even tried by upgrading only Infopath 2010 but got the similar error.

Thanks.

 

Error 1327. Invalid Drive F:"

Setup failed. Rolling back changes………………….
