Setup.exe is in the root of the CD-Rom. This is a full retail copy of the game, right?

Setup will run automatically once you pop the CD-ROM into your drive.

Only if you have Windows to auto run CDs.
Personally I hate this as a few magazine CDs I've known must be difficult to read or something as I end up with umpteen attempts to run it's autorun file !
