Booted 105 CD from floppy, CD locked, can't install to hd

Hi,
I have tried downloading the puppy linux 1.0.5 ISO but I cannot get puppy to be installed on the hard drive. The ISO image works fine off CD but I can't install puppy to hard drive because of one problem -- puppy linux will *not* let me open my cd-rom drive (eject fails, the drive appears 'locked'). Am I using the live cd version, can anyone guess what might be wrong at all?
BTW One final point, I had to boot from floppy disk as the old PC I'm using to install puppy on can't boot from CD. (It' a Dell Optiplex GXi).
Thanks
