Exclamation Games With More Than One CD!?

Ok well i started installing some of my games on vista today and amazingly every game that had more than 1 CD wouldnt install past the first CD? single CD/DVD games work but gaves with 2+ CD just wont install. It will ask you to put in the second CD then select ok, i did that. I waited over an hour but nothing progress didnt move and it was stuck on the same file. i Went to the task manager and then an error pops up saying wrong volume in drive or something like that? but its the right CD. I have tryed like 5 games that require more than one CD and none worked?

yes, the exact thing happened to me, i was trying to instal guild wars which has 2 cds, but coming to the 2nd cd, it crashed.

What i did, was just close the installer and put in the second cd and it managed to instal from there.

Looks like that's the first patch to be included in Vista SP1 then.

In that little menu you have the opportunity to select Task Manager. You can still get to task manager by right clicking on the start bar too.
