After getting the 1309 error, I wnet here and even after doing this

"Hello everyone, I'm a long time Lurker and I've decided to come out of hiding to post a solution to my troubles with installing RTW.

I was getting this error while installing RTW

"Error 1311. Source file not found. E:\sndtwo.cab. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it."

So, after a bit of research and swearwords...along with nearly chucking the CD across the room (luckily I restrained myself)... I finally found a solution.

If you get this error, open regedit and go to the

following key :

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows

NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon

the reg entry on the right called "allocatecdroms" has to

be set to 0.

Reboot, double-check to make sure it is still set to zero,

and try installing from the CD again."

i still get the same thing. PLease help me someone before I start slashing at my computer.
