I had that problem with the DVD, wouldn't autoinstall. IIRC, you open the DVD to read/access the files and select one of the executables (might have been a.exe)
Also, when it does eventally 'appear' to be installing the 'load bar' suddenly stops and nothing else happens giving the impression that the install has failed - it hasn't, just leave it and after several minutes it begins to display a whole bunch of additional files being installed.
Once you do get it installed and add the patches - back the entire folder up - you won't need the DVD again if you need to re-install in the future.
