What's the file extension? I know that mac's generally don't use file extensions, but were made to have them for things like this. I can *try* and help you though...

Oh, well then you'll need some kind of converter for .dmg. Try searching "macdrive," "magiciso," and "TransMac." I think some cost $$, but there is often free trials. You can search yahoo for something like ".dmg to windows" and maybe find some more information as well.

Hope you find a solution! :jointsmile:

The file can be put onto a Windows system and burned to CD, Windows just can't open the file as it won't recognise the extension.
