Won't copy files from Win Xp Pro installation disc

I'm running into some odd errors trying to install IIS on my Windows XP Pro workstation. I opted not to install the SMTP and FTP components of IIS, and proceeded.

First it couldn't find zClientm.ex_ from the Win XP setup disc - even though when I explore the disc, the file is right there (I also have two individual Win XP Pro disc and even though there were no visible scratches or problems, I tried the other - no changed result). Ditto for another file in a different directory than i386. I've copied both files to my desktop without copy errors, but still nothing (even when I try to use the copied versions - and checked for read only permissions). I've tried skipping these files out of curiosity, but it keeps coming up with more errors.

I've just completed a clean install of Win XP Pro - only thing I can think of that might be interefering is NAV 2004. Any other thoughts?

I appreciate any help. It doesn't look like I'm alone with this type of error - but the files missed seem to be specific to my instance.

Thanks.
