That's odd, I've put it into my laptop CD drive and the disc appears to be empty. If I try to re-burn it it says the disc is not blank.

Raffaz Golden Master Messages 6,798 Dec 25, 2006 #23 If ya have nero, burn the iso with that. If ya select recorder > burn image, and then select the .ISO file, it should work. You can get a trial from nero, if ya havent got it

OP OP P Phumfeinz Baseband Member Messages 38 Dec 25, 2006 #24 Should I choose CD-ROM (ISO) or CD-ROM (Boot)?

OP OP P Phumfeinz Baseband Member Messages 38 Dec 25, 2006 #26 The good news is, the disk now works. The bad news is, the program freezes when it is scanning for drives. The HDD shows up in the BIOS though.

Raffaz Golden Master Messages 6,798 Dec 25, 2006 #27 Can you take the HDD out and try it in another computer as a slave drive
OP OP P Phumfeinz Baseband Member Messages 38 Dec 25, 2006 #28 I'm afraid not. The only other thing we have is this laptop.
Raffaz Golden Master Messages 6,798 Dec 25, 2006 #29 Have ya got a spare cable you can try on the drive, just to rule that out aswell
OP OP P Phumfeinz Baseband Member Messages 38 Dec 25, 2006 #30 Yeah, I tried it with another cable but nothing.
