Error 1606: Could Not Access Network Location, during the installation of Office Professional Plus 2010

I have tried the suggestions indicated in this web page: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/886549
I have tried "Microsoft Fix it 50356" with no success.
The I tried to fix it by myself.  Some shell folders, like "my pictures" didn't have the right value.  I corrected it butthe error 1606 still appears.

I don't have any problem when I run the installation of my previous Office version.

This new version of Office has been downloaded on Microsoft.com as a ISO file, which has been burned on a dvd disc.
I'm running the installation from this DVD disc.

I'm using a MAK license.  I have indicated the license key by using the Office customization tool.

Thank you
Hugo Angers

I have found the solution by myself.  For the benefice of others, here it is:

You must first uninstall your previous version of Office on your computer, by using the appropriate "Fix it" feature in the following web page : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
Then restart your computer and the Office installation should work fine.


Since I have found the solution in 2 days, I don't understand why the Microsoft Support didn't give me it after all this time since Office2010 is released.
