Well,there could be a few problems there...

Your CD/DVD might be damaged

Try using the disk in different PC to see if problem persists or use a CD cleaning CD

@linkin park,
Go to Start Menu > Run and type regedit and press Enter key. This will open Registry Editor. Here, navigate to following key (by clicking the "+" symbols):

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318}

Right click on {4D36E965-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} entry, click "Export" and give a filename to export the data to a file. File will be saved as filename.reg. Now, open that file in Notepad (right-click and choose "Open With") and copy paste its contents here.
