Installing Office 2007 from disk 1 won't prompt you for disk 2, that's
normal. FYI, assuming it's a genuine Microsoft Office DVD (not a customized
disk), Disc 2 has two optional programs that you may not need; Office
Accounting 2007 Express and Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007.
Business Contact Manager for Outlook installs SQL Server Express which will
take additional hard disk space and memory so I don't recommend installing
it if you don't need it.
Overviews of those two programs are here if you are not sure if you need
them and want to read more:

From reading your message I'm not sure if disk 1 installed successfully and
if Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc... all start successfully. If those start
successfully and you don't need the disk 2 programs then I wouldn't worry
about disk 2.
If you do need the disk 2 programs installed, we do have an article on
troubleshooting setup problems when installing from the CD/DVDs for Office
2007. See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/924619. And as the article says:
