Any idea what I am doing wrong. I read > it from a Plextor I have attached and put it on a firewire drive as a Disk > image, then tried to burn from that. I can but from the original fine, but > not from the copy. I haven't had this problem with other disks. Geezuz, I'm losing it, you clearly stated that you can boot from the original DW CD. So disregard my reply about disregarding my reply. Hahahahahaaa yikes! I haven't touched a drop really. Bottom line... since a copy, is a copy, and Toast is very good at making them, you should definitely be able to boot from a Toast copied CD. I don't use Toast 4.1, but I know that when copying a CD with the copy feature in Toast 5, an exact duplicate is achieved, bootability included. -Howie Howie, You're not losing it, so have another . . . The DW CD boots different OS's depending on the Mac Model it boots from. IIRC it will boot 7.6 on a Mac IIci, 8.6, or 9.1 depending on other machine's capabilities. (Mine boots OS 9.1 on my S900 irregardless of OS on the drive.) I made my backup using Toast 5's copy function also. I haven't tried it using an earlier version of Toast, but that may lead to problems due to the multiple boot volumes on the original. So to Mark I say, see if Howie's idea works. It may limit the utility of the utility, but would get a working CD. Also, you could create a boot image and copy the DW app to that, then burn.
