Vista guest fails to install software from host drive(cd)

I´ve tried to install the software baldurs gate 2 on Windows vista, from the cd in the hostdrive. It could be a I/O problem.

A screenshot of an error message will be attached.

It could help to enable passthrough for the CD drive.

Yes, that helps.m I´ve done this on xp, where the same problem occures.
