what do you mean by install as there is no need to install anything on your computer to use the router

@ Oldjim.
i changed from a voyager 210 to the thomson [sent by plusnet ] as the voyager was broken.  thanks.

Was the Voyager connected through the USB port and did you install software for this - if so you would need to uninstall it.
To clarify.
When you installed the 585 router did you install anything or just plugged it in to the socket and connected to the computer via the network connector
Which screen are you trying to open when you get the windows no disk report.
Can you do a screen print and post it using the Additional Options box
Edit - just realised that you have a 516 not a 585 
If you are connecting via the USB port you would need to uninstall the Voyager Software first.
