Ok, I had to get real technically advanced and just start hitting a bunch of buttons.
just kidding.
The problem was I was getting a beginning screen with no options and it was in german with no options. After I just scrambled around with it and actually got into the program I could set the language. The problem was that it was freaking out on my virtual cd-roms and it wanted me to confirm the drive letters.
Thanks for the help NewGen.
