You need to create installation CD's from the iso's, not simply put the iso's on a CD. ISO's are disk images that will create an actual installation CD(s) when you correctly write them to a CD. Use Nero or Easy Cd Creator in Windows (if that is what you are using). There is an option for creating a CD from as ISO image. DO NOT simply create a data CD and throw the iso file on the cd. That will not work. Good luck!
