I have had several problems installing Rebel9 and 10. I think that sometimes the information on the screen is not always clear. When I first tried to install my upgrade version, I was asked to put my original in, which was a CD. I was then told that whatever I put in was not the original disk. Having great experience in installing obsinate software, I just kept trying, and paying a little more attention to what was happening. Sometimes an ignore works, sometimes something else. Sometimes the install program might be looking at the wrong drive. And maybe you were sent the upgrade version. Of course, you could have a faulty CD. In that case you would just be spinning your wheels trying to install. But I feel it could be a confusing install setup. Good Luck!
