On install? I dont think anyone has come up with anything to stop an install on a new machine. Even if it was a re-install such blocks on Windows machines tend to be registry blocks

Ive installed my Dom discs many MANY times. On the same machine, different machines, different major operating systems even. I dont think the protection for it kicks in until you try to play it.
