Are you able to read the CD normally under Windows? If not, it may simply be a bad burn. You can verify this with the checksum if you grabbed that along with the ISO. If the CD appears to be good try launching the install with floppies, the images are on the CD and instructions on copying them to floppy are in INSTALL.TXT/INSTALL/HTM. Cheers, Viktor
