When trying to install the 2009 DVD, the setup initializes, I pick the program, and then when Acad 2009 initializes, the screen disappears and the DVD drive stops after about 5 seconds. I've disabled the anti-virus and firewall program and started Windows XP Home in diagnostic mode (with Windows Installer checked). I don't get an error code and have looked for the install log in the %temp% file, but there is only an AutoCad 2009 Setup log -no install log. It just shows "setup started" and "setup ended."
It is a stand alone version and was successfully installed on the other work station.
Does anyone out there have any suggestions?

I'm sure this isn't the problem, but the only thing I can think of is make sure you are using the 32 bit DVD for a 32 bit OS, or 64 DVDon 64 OS.
