Hello.
I'm having problems installing old Mac Office 2008, from its original
DVD, into an old early 2008 MacBook Pro's brand new Mac OS X v10.11.6/El
Capitan. After entering its valid key, it says "The installation failed.
The Installer could not install the software. The Installer could not
install the software because there was no software found to install."

I assume the installer doesn't support this newer OS version, but
http://roaringapps.com/apps says it is compatible. Is there a way to
install it? :(
Thank you in advance. :)
