I have a DVD rom with many images on it, If I try to copy the Imac freezes. Only way out is to relaunch finder. Sounds like a used thrashing machine when I first insert disk.

Get everything started again and I am able to open dvd and see files

I can drag and drop a folder to desk top for copying purpose so long as that folder contains no sub folders.

I can open and copy the individual images from the top folder which contains a sub folder

If I try to drag and drop the sub folder to desktop its freeze time again. If I try to open sub folder it sometimes open but cannot copy any of the files or images or just freezes when attempting to open

Anyone have any ideas? I would really like to get all images off disk

When was the last time you repaired permission and other desktop maintenance. If the "Desktop" files on the DVD where messed up at the time you made the disc you may never get them off.
