Are you sure that your disks are not defective? Otherwise, it should work without issues.

Do a checksum and see if it returns the right values.

If that doesn't work, try burning the ISOs. You might also want to get some cheap CDs to help Mandrake along, if you can afford it. It will also come with some nice documentation.
