Office installation error

My new PC came with Office trial version pre-loaded. I have since purchased
Office Home & Student 2007. Before installing it, I uninstalled the trial
version & the Assistant. In installing my new program, I got past entering
my key and "Agree". It looked like installation was beginning. Then I got
an "Error 1303: C:programFiles(x86)\CommonFiles\MicrosoftShared\EQUATION
Unable to access. Verify I have the EQUATION folder and that I have
administrative rights and Retry."

I have the folder on my computer and I am the Administrator. Still no go.

What do I do next?

In your origonal post in the 'setup group' a response was to uninstall
Office 2007 including the Activation Assistant, via Add/Remove, run disk
cleanup to remove temp files, reboot the PC, then install from cd
