BleepingComputer.com: Microsoft Office 2007 encounters problem before install even starts!

After searching through google and the forums for a solution, I thought i'd come here and ask. First off, is Microsoft Office 2007 compatible with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2002? I know it is for regular XP but for whatever reason, Microsoft made that horrible version. Anyways, I go to install it, enter my key, click install and it goes to the install screen. The bar doesn't fill at all. After a few seconds.. i hear the HDD click a bit and then it says it encountered an error during setup. I've tried many google suggestions. No other version of office installed. Tried installing to a different folder, and even to a different HDD. Any suggestions? Like I said, it doesn't even start the installation...
