In "My Computer" does it show up as SupCom? It must be recognizing the cd if you got it to install. Did it only come with one disc?

sounds odd... likely some software you have on your pc that interferes with it, try patching the game, it might help.

If you bought the best buy branded supcom (one with free game download) they seem to have a problem with burning discs properly. So you can either

A. Patch up to the latest supcom patch which doesn't require the cd to play or

B. Return the game to best buy for a replacement so you can get two free games (what I did)

Yeah same thing happened to me; after patching I had the game running fine but still returned the game to best buy out of principle (and wanting to get Plants vs. Zombies and World of Goo free:P).
