i downloaded it, its deviance version
=================================

i see you said that you burned with diff software...from which i assume you burned enuff times to check out the problem....

it could either be bad drivers (burner drivers, i mean) or just a bad lot of cds....

other than that, i cant think of anything else

i ripped a monopoly game for my nephew,
so, like always, i test the cd after the rip
didnt work, so it appeared, but he took it home anyways
and came back and said it worked on their pc, wtf?
(think i still need to play with the prog a little,
theres gotta be a logical explanation)

oh yeah, the rip was with alcohol

I bet he doesn't have a CDRW drive.
One of the protection methods checks whether the disc in the drive is a recordable one. ROM drives cannot read the part of a CDR/CDRW disc that says it's recordable so copied discs work in those drives.

If it's a Deviance release then it won't be a protected image.

How long have you left the installation running before ending the process? It may just need a while to complete something before carrying on.
Also consider faulty hardware... have you got an original CD of something you can install as a test?

@Smurfette
When i try to copy file from cd to HDD same problem it stucks at 18%
and i have waited atleast for 8 or 9 min at 18%
=============================================
can the installition problem be becuz of this:
i have problem with ma Cdwriter
when i insert cd, its ejected and then inserted Auto twice in row and then cant read it, and when i flash it and restart the pc only for one time i can write and read after ejecting the cd back to same problem.
