If you downloaded the software then follow philo's advice except
download a new copy of the s/w if you can. It would be easier to
diagnose your problem if you told us what s/w you're having problems with.

My reply is at the bottom of your sent message.

Try copying the files to your hard drive and then install from the hard
drive.

In line with the above I have sometimes found it beneficial to copy to an
ISO format and then mount that image. The process takes a bit, small
learning curve, but isn't bad once you get used to it. I have had some
damaged CDs that just wouldn't work and the software that makes the ISO
images seemed to deal with the scratches a little better than just a copy to
the hard drive via conventional methods.
