Installing office 2003 on Vista

Hello:confused:
Need a bit of advice on installing office 2003 on my new laptop. When I try to load the disc a box appears saying that elevation is required - What does this mean? We have used this disc in the past ok on our pc with xp - the laptop is Vista should that make a difference?
Thanx in advance

    It means you need administrator privileges to install it, but it should install on Vista. Can you right-click on the setup.exe on the CD and click Run As Administrator?
