Default can't play flight sim why?

My pc is the following

Windows Vista
Pakard Bell I-Media X2416
Intel Core Quad Q8200 @2.33GHZ
4GB Ram
Nvidia Geforce 7100/Nforce630i
DirectX 11

Ok just bought flight sim deluxe, system requirments as follows....

0S- XP or Vista
Processor - 1.0ghz
Hard Drive - 15gb
Other - DirectX 9 hardware compatibilty
Video Card - DirectX 9 compiant video card with 32mb ram.

I put the disk in but it will not autorun, & if I go to my computer the disk is not showing. Iv just tried it in a friends Laptop which is running windows 7 & i-core 3 but with less ram & less powerful graphics card etc and it runs? Other games on discs seem to work fine on my pc.

Any ideas?

Jamie
