It's possible that the DVD you used was damaged. Try a different one
I just bought it..1 hour ago .Just opnened it and put it straight to my iMac and then it failed.Then this happens..
I've heard that thats because my iMac doesent support burning on DVD idk..Should i try CD or?
Try a different one. If it doesn't work, I would start thinking about a problem with the SuperDrive. I don't know why, but SuperDrives fail a lot
Windows only fits into a DVD, not a CD. Also, you said you have a 2010 iMac, so it supports DVDs
So i buy the same DVD ?Thats kinda a waste of money as i bought it before 1 hour..
Thats my DVD stats:DVD-R Verbatim with 4.7 GB,16x speed and 120 min....
So if i buy it and it has the same problem then what?I break my mac ?? xDD
I recommend you to buy more than one DVD (if it's possible, a different one than the DVD you used), just in case you need more in the future.
If the same problem happens, the SuperDrive is damaged so the solution will be worse because you will need an external optical drive. As you could burn it into a USB drive, I discard problems with the ISO image
Can you suggest me a DVD that has at least a good chance of working ?
I had never before problems with CD's but i never tried DVD.Well i better forget the chance of bootcamp working..Thnx anyway.
You are welcome
