Yes i burnt them as regular iso images. Do i need to burn them as a hybrid 
cd (not really sure what that is), or a iso 9600 cd (again, no idea...)? 
It's not my powerbook , so i couldn't tell you the year it was purchased. I 
Can tell you it has a 2x DVD drive in it, not a cd drive. Does that make a 
difference?

Do they even sell 650mb cd's anymore???  Is there anyway i can transfer the 
image files across the network directly to the mac from the pc, and then use 
them that way? any other ideas? Thanks

Geoff
