Which operating system are you using? If it is Vista, did you run using Administrator permissions? (Right click, "run as administrator").

Have you tried copying all the data files from the disc into your C:\ drive and running the install from there?

Or you could try going into,


control panel > Performance and Maintenance > Administrative tools > event viewer > systems tab


and seeing if there is any errors from there.

Good luck!
