Problem installing Access 97 Runtime app on Windows 2000 PC

I have an access 97 runtime application that has been installed successfully on many machines of different configurations( with and without access 97, with and without access 2000, windows 95, windows 98) but I have a problem getting it installed on a Windows 2000 machine. This is the first Windows 2000 machine I have tried. The machine in question does have Office 2000 (including Access 2000) installed.

I get the error "Object 1575: Your setup files may be damanged. Try restarting the Setup program form where you originally ran it." just as it is about to start the install. The only option is to click OK, then it exits the install process with the message "...Setup was not completed successfully".

I recreated the install images and got the same error. I then recreated the install images on a different machine (Windows 98, with the 97 development tools installed) and got the same error.

Any ideas? Any one else have similar problems intalling runtime versions on differently configured machines? What are the issues I should address when creating runtime versions that will be run on differently configured machines?

Thanks in advance
Dave
