Autorun??  Are you trying to start the install with the machine already 
running?
If not, you may need to set your bios to boot from CD before it boots 
from the hdisk.

To install you need to boot from the CD, not try to use autorun with a 
running OS.
It needs to have control of the machine to install.

You also should have all *3* CDs already created and ready for the install.
