As long as you can copy the data from the installation CD to the hard drive, you can setup the software from there. This can be done many ways : ZIP, JAZZ, network, laplink etc.. Even if you used a diskette and copied 1.44MB at a time; it may take awhile but it will work (Hopefully you have the disk space).

There is about 300 meg on the CD, and I am not sure just what files I really need to load the basic software.

MasseyM,
"RYAN!!! Post this as an answer would you!??"
Did I annoy you by doing this? Sorry if I did.. In the past I have found that a possible solution may not what the person is looking for and therfore rejects it; even though it WILL work. Sometimes you just can't please everyone. Oh well.. Have a good one...
Just curious. If you wanted me to "answer" why did you lock it?
