Secondly you can try to turn off the DMA-Mode of your CD-ROM drive

1. Click on "Start -> Settings -> System -> Hardware -> Device Manager"
2. Klick on the "+" sign near the entry "IDE-Controller"
3. Click with the right mouse on the channel (Primary or Secondary) where your DVD/CD-ROM drive is connected and choose "Properties"
4. There check which transfer setting is used and you may change it once (PIO/DMA).
5. Confirm with "Ok"
6. Now restart your PC

Additionally you can test the following:
Restart your PC. Before the Loading-Screen of Windows appears, push "F8" and start Windows in the Safe Mode. Now try to install the game here.
