    What are you trying to install or are you just booting up? More info is required in this case.

    I am trying to install aol broadband on the laptop i have a computer in my front room which already has aol broadband installed i am then hoping to make the laptop wireless so my son can use it. The message keeps coming up when i insert the broadband disc in the laptop so its stopping me from the wireless process

    Is the disc dirty at all? That is probably it.

    Why do you need to use a disc to install your broadband - does AOL actually need their own software still?
