[QUOTE="dtravis7, post: 128972, member: 8287"] I am not saying this to step on anyone, just my experiences. I always make Backups of my Expensive Software or OS Discs. I can not afford to have something happen to one of the CDs or DVD's, so I always make backups. I have a backup of Jaguar and Panther off my origional discs and both will boot and install fine on any Mac in the house. I have not backed Tiger yet as I will have to install my Plextor back in my G4 as the DVD is in Mac format, but will be doing that soon. If the CDs are copied correctly they should boot up just fine. Did you copy on a PC or a Mac? I know the OSX Install CD's are in hfs+ and will not even read on my pc's. [/QUOTE]
