So as I said when it reboots to continue the install leave it to boot normally do not choose to boot from the CD.
Obviously the CD stays in the drive as Windows will need the CD to install the files from (unless you copy to HD and run install from there) but I have known some people to get confused and keep choosing to boot from the CD as they think they have to for the install to complete. After about 4 or 5 reboots they often ask "why hasn't it installed yet? I tell it to boot from the CD"
Yes, point taken, just took that for granted!
