Installing from an SSD drive

[Carol5DA7]

My old laptop's drive became completely corrupt about a fortnight ago. Nothing I did could revive it. I obviously couldn't remove my copy of Adobe Creative Design Premier 5 from the old laptop.

I bought a new laptop to replace the old one, but it doesn't have a DVD drive, so I downloaded a copy of my  Creative Design Premier from my account on Adobe's web site.

The problem is that on installing the software from the USB flash drive it fails with a message to insert Disc 1.

Is there a workaround for this?

If you are using External USB drive , Have you tried copying the setup file to Laptop local drive and tried installing ?

Do you mean just the setup.exe file or the complete set of installation files?

Thank you, I transferred all the files (including the setup.exe file) to a local drive and it seems to be working.

Thank you again, after struggling with this from last night, your suggestion worked perfectly. All the Creative Suite program that I neededs are now up and working on my new laptop.
