Honestly, didn't find out the exact reason, but just google Vista and
Office 97.   You'll find lots of postings with various error messages.

Hi Drew

Why was it that A97 wouldn't install?

My new laptop came with Vista.  Looked nice.  Ran fine.  Tried to
install Office 97 (I currently run 97 and 2003 on all of my development
systems).  Wouldn't install.

Yes, I could use VPC to run 97 when I need it, but I prefer my OS to be
able to run the software I CURRENTLY use natively.

So after that error installing Office 97 (and a quick google search
verifying that Office 97 wouldn't install on Vista) and my laptop had XP
on it faster then you could say 'Microsoft screwed the pooch with
Vista'. ;)
