Sims 2 Bon Voyage Installation Problem?

Hi

Been trying to install The Sims 2 Bon Voyage on my daughter's laptop. Have enough disk space and memory and Disk 1 installs fine, but when I put Disk 2 in, it just sits there and does nothing. What could be causing this and how can I get it to install? Thanks!

Update:

A window comes up that says Insert Disk 2. When I do that and hit "ok", it does nothing. I mean, I've actually waited a half hour and it does not do anything.

    Think twice before installing Bon Voyage on any computer. This is from the Securom wiki:

    The Sims 2 controversy

    The Sims 2 and most of its subsequent add-ons have previously been using Safedisk for copy protection until April 2007. However, since then, Electronic Arts has replaced Safedisk with SecuROM v 7.x software protection, which is included with The Sims Pet Stories, The Sims 2 Deluxe, The Sims 2: H&M Fashion Stuff and The Sims 2: Bon Voyage. Some users have been reporting problems with launching the game, CD-burners or anti-virus protection, due to SecuROM. EA attempted to address some of these concerns on the official website. They instructed users on how to remove the software from their computers.[5] Users who asked about the removal of SecuROM were recommended to not do so, since it can affect the functioning of The Sims 2: Bon Voyage and other EA games that use SecuROM.[6]

    A lot of people I know have had to have their entire computer reformatted because of this program. Securom installs automatically when you install Bon Voyage and if--big IF--you do manage to get rid of it, everytime you start up Bon Voyage (unless you have a no-cd crack code) the Securom will reinstall itself.
