Vista DVD keeps ejecting while using Boot Camp

[sockpuppet]

I'm trying to install Windows Vista Home Premium using Boot Camp on my MacBook Pro 15". I partition the Mac HD and I gave myself plenty of space on the Windows partition (52 GB) because I want to install large games on it.

When it comes to installing Vista I insert the DVD and click 'start installation'. It looks like it's going to work for a few seconds then it says that it can't recognize the DVD and the disc just ejects itself.

I tried to partition the HD then restart and hold down the 'C' key to boot from the DVD. The same thing happened, the disc just ejects itself...

Can someone please help me get Vista installed? Will I have the same problems trying to install XP because if not then I will just install that. I would prefer Vista because of the DX10 compatibility for Crysis.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Are you using a Microsoft branded DVD? This issue typically appears when you use a copied DVD.

My copy of Vista is 100% legitimate.

Is it the upgrade disk? You can not install windows fresh without the full install.

Here is picture of the DVD. Sorry about it being mirrored, I took it with photo booth. As you can see it is the full Windows Vista.
