The installation process for Visual Studio 2005 prompts Please insert the disk: Visual Studio 2005 everytime when I try to install VS2005.

This is what I did:

* Downloaded VS 2005 from the MSDN members download site.
File name: en_vs_2005_pro_dvd.iso (size=2,825,748 KB)

* Used MagicISO tool to unpack the files

* Used Nero 6 to write the extracted files to the DVD

* Created a brand new Virtual PC with Windows XP + SP2

* Start the install process in the VPC by clicking on the setup.exe
in vs on the dvd

* Select the default installation options

* Installation starts for a long time and then prompts:
Please insert the disk: Visual Studio 2005

The screen show:

Installing Components: Microsoft Visual Studio 2005
Directory: Visual Studio 2005 Professional edition - ENU
File: htmllite.dll

What am I doing wrong? I have retried the process 3 times with the same results.
