      hmsam...... What are you trying to install ........ win 98SE or Win XP ?
      Are you using nice shiny MicroSoft cds or copies ?

      Do you receive any error messages or anything at all? There may be a problem with the cd your using. Try another cd to make sure there are no problems with your cd rom drive.

          Yeah, try checking the Windows Catalog.  I imagine you will find the card is not compatible with Windows XP:
