NIS 2011 Installation Failure

I also have an instalation failure, but mine is a little different. I bought the 3 license IS 2011.  I have never installed it. Tonight I tried and as soon as I start to read the CD, I get an error, asking me to send a crash report.  (Both the CD and DVD drives on this PC) So my question is, can I download the trial, and use the product code to let it install, instead of entering all the registration stuff?

 

Thanks for reading this!
