Quickest way is to install it into anything other than C Drive, preferably a secondary/D Drive.

Something must be wrong with your disc or drive. I run Windows 7 Professional and it install right away. I do not use the disc however and have all files in a folder to begin with and do reinstalls from that folder.

By the way go to the exe to install the game and right click it and choose RUN AS ADMINISTRATOR

Few days ago I've installed the European DVD version in Windows Professional x64 in less than 10 minutes, patched to 1.4 and then added the U-Boot Missions Add-On (1.5 patch).
It all runs fine, it's only that with my NVidia 8800 the High settings look more crap than the Medium ones, a mystery to me
I will try the D3D Overider to see if triple buffering and AA will give a better look.

Will have to swim before I dive...
