Downloaded an ISO called "MaC.OsX.10.4.5.Universal.Install.DVD(INTEL/AMD/SSE3/SSE2).iso" and since my PC doesnt have a DVD burner i burnt the image using Disk Utility on my iMac. Placed the DVD into my PC and nothing. The DVD wont boot. I've made several copies with no luck. I have check all my BIOS settings and they're fine. I place the DVD in the drive when in Windows and the DVD appears in My Computer and the DVD mounts fine on my PowerBook and iMac. I've tried the DVD in VMWare and it just says that there is no bootable DVD in the drive. What am I doing wrong? Is there anyway of using the DVD i have now and making it bootable??

 

My specs

 

Dell Dimension 8200 (i850 chipset)

1.8GHz (Willamette) P4

768MB PC800 RDRAM

120GB HD

nVidia GeForce3 Ti200 64MB

Samsung SD-616 DVD-ROM drive (i think)

 

Many thanks in advance

I've downloaded the Image again. Took me over 2 days.. Mounted it in Daemon tools and tried the install using VMWare. VMWare is telling me that there is no bootable CD/DVD in the drive. Quite a few people have had success in at least getting the DVD to boot... I haven't even got that far.. Any ideas??

 

Many thanks
