Errors during BTS install/ Vista

[A_F_I]

I've been receiving several errors while trying to install BTS on a 32-bit Vista system (Intel Core duo processor, 1.83 GHz; 3 GB Ram). It is very strange because the same BTS disks installed perfectly on another computer of mine, an old XP desktop. During the install of BTS, the first disk installs fine, but when I try to put in the second disk, the computer doesn't recognize it and won't let me continue the install (oftentimes it will start "not responding", then locking up for a while until a error message comes up saying there is no disk in the chosen drive, E: ). If it does recognize the disk, somewhere along the install i run into a "data redundancy error" and the setup quits. I have just Civ 4 installed with patch 1.61 (note: the Data redundancy errors occurred when I had 1.74 installed. I read the Civ4 and Vista guide in this forum, and uninstalled Civ4, then reinstalled with 1.61. Since then, only the non-recognizable error has occurred, which might be preventing me from getting to the point of a data redundancy error).

I've tried several times to install BTS/ some versions of Civ 4 in the past (I uninstalled them), so there is a possibility some installshield files are left. Although, I'm fairly certain i've gotten rid of all former Civ 4 registry keys.

Oh, and also, the install takes forever, especially when compared to the original Civ 4.

Any thoughts?

Thanks,

If you need any clarification, just ask...

try copying all files from the discs to one folder on the hard drive and run the installer from there.
