Outlook 2007 beta CD will not install

L

My computer (733 MHz Celeron) meets the requirements of the 2007 beta
i.e. "Microsoft Windows XP Service Pack (SP) 2, 500 megahertz (MHz)
processor or higher; 256 megabyte (MB) RAM or higher". It does not
even see the CD in the drive. When I put the install CD in another
computer that is a Pentium 4, it sees the CD. However, I do not want
to instll the beta on that machine.

That's odd. Are these two machines networked? You could share the CD drive
on machine B to access from machine A?

Sorry, I have no other reasonable solution.

In addition to William;
Are you sure that it is on a CD and not a DVD? If it is on a DVD you'll need
a DVD-drive instead of a CD drive.

That is probably the issue. I ordered the Beta from Microsoft. The
machine that can "see" it has a DVD/CD drive the other just has a CD
drive.
