i put the cd in but it dosent pop up in vb and there is no drive to click to start it.. how do i install a program?

Office must be installed in a Windows operating system. Install a Windows OS and then install Office.

well i have vista installed on the VB, after i open the vista VB i put in my MS office cd and nothing happens. i looked upnder my computer and there is no cd drive listed just a floppy, and the defult drivers for vb in C; (i installed those already if that matters)

Boot the guest and then look at the top left of the window for devices. See if the CD/DVD is mounted. If it is and you still do not see it then click un-mount and the click mount to force it to re-read the mount. Make sure that your install CD is in the drive.

dose this matter that it is a burned backup copy of my Office? its a legal copy its just i got by DL and burned it to cd for backup. dose vista inside the vm work pretty much like actual vista?

[Perryg]

It should not matter if you copied it correctly. and Vista should work close to the way it does native. There are a few restrictions that have to deal with graphics.
