How to install the game form disk but not from the internet?

I have 2 disk for Mass Effect 3 and while I'm installing it, it still is download data from internet. The disk is not working. While I tried to use disk to install again, it said the same code had been used. And now I need to wait for over 17hours to download! OMG..... So, I really want to know how to install the game form disk but not from the internet? (one disk is about 7.9GB other one is about 2GB)

    How to Install Mass Effect 3 from DVD (without download)
    1.) Install Origin
    2.) Let Origin Update to the current Version
    3.) Restart Origin
    4.) Enter your Mass Effect 3 Code in Origin
    5.) Don’t start the Download, but close Origin with a right click on the Origin Icon in the Systray -> Exit
    6.) Restart setup.exe from Disc 1, it will start Origin and the Installation from the DVDs

     

    Installing ME3 from disk
    1. C:\ProgramData\Origin\DownloadCache\ delete all files inside this folder
    2. Close Origin process by right-clicking taskbar > Start Task Manager > go to Processes tab > find Origins.exe *32 > right click > select End Process
    3. load up DVD wait for autorun
    4. Origin will load - login
    5. Enter your code if prompted (and haven't done so already)
    6. installation from disc should begin.
