Sounds like the data format may have been Joliet ... there's an
extension that will help you read that CD better (if it was in Joliet
anyway)
<http://www.tempel.org/joliet/>
From the page :
What it is
Basically, this free System Extension enhances the way your Macintosh
computer can read CD-ROMs from other platforms, mainly Windows. Until
now, if you inserted a Windows CD-ROM in your Mac, file names
appeared to be crippled (in the so-called 8.3 format) or files may
have been inaccessible. This Joliet extension is designed to solve
these problems.
Especially, if you have CD-ROMs with the following contents you'll
likely benefit from this enhancement:
MP3 songs
Files in PDF format with cross-references or indexes
Java class and/or source files
Web content with hyperlinks, such as HTML files.
DirectCD CD-Rs created and closed under Windows
