you should be a bit more specific please, that doesn't make any sense.
you need a new CD-ROM drive,or use your second one
I had that problem before,and I had to use my realy slow 4x CD-R drive to install
my 48x CD-ROM drive dont want to read stuff properly,thast why!!
EDIT : If you are trying to install The Frozen Throne,it is because either
a) You dont have Warcraft 3 installed
b) You arent pointing to the right directory

There is a walkthrough to get past that on the WC3 site, I think, as I had the same problem.

Lol, no he doesn't need a new CD drive. Bro you said Warcraft doesnt want to install WarCraft 3? Do you have Warcraft II on your comp? If your finished playing Warcraft II uninstall it. then restart your computer and try the installation over. Most of the time if that error comes up you restart or try again, its common sense.

By the way, its a great game, and though there are as many map cheaters as there are in Counter-Strike, Blizzard at least makes an effort to stop these people from doing it. Though the cheating isn't quite as bad as CS.
Great game, I hope you didn't just buy Reign of Chaos though, you gotta get Frozen Throne, we were ranked 8th on Arranged Team because my firend and I played in the beta, and got the game the day it came out - now we are in the 50's.
Highly addicting, though I still believe ROC was the best, but with FT out not as many will play.

Hmm Lol.. I don't know then man, but it says theres no disk in the drive? How did you get all the way to setup if it thinks theres no disk in the drive? Man it could be many problems.. The closest I can come to is that your CD Drive is hving trouble reading disks, and that you should put the disk in and wait for it to bring up setup. And the other is I think you should download the latest installations to your computer. Forgot address, www.microsoft.com ? (sorry if this is advertising)

"If you are having problems installing Warcraft III from the cd, copy all of the contents of the cd to your hard drive and run install.exe."
Try that solution, it was on the site.
And BTW, do not make double, triple, quadruple, or greater posts. If you still have the problem, try emailing Blizzard instead of making multiple posts....besides they are the most qualified people to handle this.

If you can't find any help on Blizzard.com, I would give their technical support a call. The number is (949) 955-1382.
For most people, that is probably long distance, but if you are really stuck and need help badly enough.
