    I'm having the same problem.

    On my hard disk, I created a directory, VS .NET, where I placed the
    contents of the four VS CDs. In a subdirectory, Update, I added the
    Component Update disc. When I run setup from this location, there are no
    problems.

    If I copy the all the subdirectories (Extras, Program Files, Win, etc.) to
    the root directory of a DVD, the installation proceeds for about 10%, then
    prompts for CD 1.

    I don't need a solution. I could just copy the files back if I need to
    reinstall, but I'd rather not.

    Any ideas?

    Mike
