- It seems that your CD is faulty. But, it could also be the files=
- setting in your config.sys (just a guess), because installing means
- opening lots of files, so this could run out of file handles.
- put a files=80 statement in your config.sys and see if it helps,
- if not, call Borland.

- Good Luck,
