This article was previously published under Q304257

- At attempt to install from a shared CD-ROM drive fails and the following series of error messages appears:

CAUSE
Microsoft Application Center 2000 Service Pack 1 Setup may prompt you for the installation source during installation. If the installation source has an unrecognized volume label or the installation media being used has an unsupported stock keeping unit (SKU) number, Setup will fail to complete successfully.
The MSDN (Microsoft Developer Network) release of Microsoft Application Center 2000 was distributed with the CD labeled as "AC2000MSDN", which is an unrecognized label, so Setup fails to recognize it.
NOTE: Microsoft Application Center 2000 Service Pack 1 is not supported by the evaluation version of the application, so this version cannot be upgraded.
RESOLUTION
To resolve this problem:
- Create a new Microsoft Application Center 2000 CD that has a recognized label name (see the following table).
