P4P800: Bundled WinDVD cannot install?

Today, I bought a DVD drive and tried to install WinDVD Suite from CD that
came bundled with my P4P800 motherboard. So far no luck.

The main setup application just quits when I hit "install..." command. The
window dissapears without any message, but before that I can browse other
options to see description of the programs within the suite etc... Just
installing fails.

I found WinDVD player's folder on the CD and run setup.exe from there - then
installation begins but I must type in the serial number. Was there any
specific serial number for that CD?! Can't remember that, bought it this
spring. Serial number of the motherboard doesn't work

Has anybody installed successfuly this CD? What is the right procedure? Or
maybe I can get software update from ASUS / InetrVideo sites (couldn't find
any, but my transfer is low from home, maybe I will try at work).

Any help will be greatly appreciated. I can't watch any movies!

Regards,

Kevin

OK, solved the problem by myself

Still I don't know why the installer does not start from the main window,
but I found the right sub-folder with setup.exe and running it starts the
installation properly (no questions about serial number!).
