Can anyone help me with this problem?

I created an Office Pro Plus 2007 admin install onto a network share. I
then created a batch file that would install it as NT Authority\System user.

The following errors pops up everytime I run the install on my XP desktop:

Sourc: MsiInstaller
Event ID: 11708
User: NT Authority\System
Product: Microsoft Office Professional Plus 2007 -- Installation failed.

Install Log
Error: Failed to install product: C:\MSOCache\All
Users\{90120000-0011-0000-0000-0000000FF1CE}-C\ProPlusWW.msi
ErrorCode:1635(0x663)

Thanks.
 
Steve, thanks for the reply. It's due to the fact that my application
deployment tool uses the System account for software deployment.

It should work like this:

1. Created a null UNC share on W2K3 server to host my Office 2007 Pro Admin
installer
2. Created a batch file that points to the installer.
3. Deploy the batch file from my application deployment tool
4. The batch file executes as System user to install office from the UNC
share.

The installation works only if I logon to the workstation as admin and
launch the batch file.

Thanks, again.
 
I will try PSS next week. The following is an extended portion of the error
log:
