installing off the mini image from gamecopyworld

ok so i lent my friend my civ4 cd, he broke it, and i got hooked using a no cd, my computer crashes, i've lost the game, and can't reinstall it..

so i tried to get the mini image from gamescopyworld, but the base image isn't giving me an opportunity to install it, i mount it on alcohal(or daemon) and it loads up to the file, with teh autorun and setup and diag and such, but i can't run the executables, help!?!?!

You don't. The mini image is basically empty.
