Bioshock ISO Install Glitch

Hi This is really strange and I can't even begin to figure it out. (And I usually ALWAYS do) Anyway I own Bioshock legally as well as all FPSs from 1998 to Call of Duty World at war. So many in fact that in order for me to play headache free I MUST USE Game Copy World's services to avoid loading in the actual retail CD/DVD to play. So as a result my desktop is always 1 click ready away from ANY of the 67 Game Icons displayed. Its the only way to exist with all of those game choices. Thank you Game copy World! ( I am Due to reward you with a long overdue donation soon. Shame on me for not doing it sooner) Anyway Got a new PC for Xmas. Vista 64Bit, 4 Gig DDR3, 1333FSB Intel Q9550 X 4@ 2.83 Ghz And a Nvidia GTX 280 w 1Gb onboard Tex Mem. 1Tb Drive Etc... So specs Are not an issue. My old XP Rig runs Bioshock it fine. (Its sitting in the corner now, poor boy) So Because so many game cases and boxes are intact in storage needless to say I use a lot of ISO and other images to run re-installs etc. (I got a image saved of each game I own on 2 500gig my books) So in my excitement I started loading all my old game in to finally see how they played on this system. Everything set to HIGH Spec. Crysis, any of them No Problem! (Its the best over any console rig. I will go down playing on Hi end PC rig as long as 1 good game is in the works somewhere till the day it dies!) But Bioshock? I load it into Daemon 4.30.2 the install screen pops and I click "install" and nothing. I kept the task Mgr open along side the Autorun screen. "Bioshock Running" shows until I click on "install" Then it just vanishes from the list. Like a closed program. I tried creating a .mds from the .ISO image no good. Also I have a .PXI image but Daemon dosen't play plextor images. Me who can keep everyone's computers up and running don't have a clue. This is probably due to the fact that I resisted Vista for all this time. Yes I am of the type that thinks MS is way out of their league on many issues of privacy. But unfortunately they are the only game in town for the best in OSs for hi end gamers like us. So...WTFYGdo?

Thanks

Ed

PS: Sorry for the long explain but I never do this. And I'm excited.
