Do a custom launch action maybe..

after normal setup completes.....

have it run your exe or whatever from the CD to install.

You can find that in online help Custom Launch Action I think.

I have done one simple one.

You can do very complex custom install things that inherit some classes but
mine just called an exe that I placed on the cd in addition to other files.
