Photoshop elements 8.0 won't install?

I just got photoshop elemts 8.0 for windows on christmas, however when i place the disk in the drive it spins, but only for a few seconds. nothing opens up. all that happens is my mouse changes to the pointer and a picture of a cd. I tried the disk on another computer, and it ran. I'm sure my laptop meets the requirements. Am i doing something wrong?

    If it doesn't automatically start the installation, just open the drive in Explorer and look for anything called "setup.exe".

    There's also a chance that you have a DVD installation disc, but your computer can't read DVDs. If it can, try using a drive-cleaning disc.
