Help! Can't mount a DVD-RW burned on a Windows machine!
I burned a bunch of files from work (on a Windows machine) to a DVD-RW, and now my G5 (running 10.3.8) insists the disk is blank and won't mount it. Help!

1. was it an iso disc or did you use some incremental backup
or some other software that doesnt finish the disc?

if its an iso disc the mac should mount it.

2. Good question...
I've read that OS 10.3.x seems to have some issues mounting Joliet discs, so I made sure it was burned as an ISO disc today. Seems to mount fine, so I'm copying over the files now to see if it all works.
