    So what happened was, that my friend wanted his computer reformatted, and I know the discs work and everything, cause I use them on this computer all the time to reformat, but when everything is said and done, I go to install the drivers, and the disc is in there, and the computer recognizes that it is in there, but it won't run.(The setup won't run from the drivers disc*) How do I get the drivers disk to run? help!

    Right click on the DVD drive icon and select "Explore". It will open up the contents of the disc for you to see. Try double-clicking on the "Autorun" app or the actual setup executable itself to run the disc........
