Here's my problem...

I'm trying to dual boot Windows and Mac. I have the DVD (Self Burned), and have a program called iBoot to replace Darwin/Chameleon/Chimera. I insert the iBoot disk. let it mount, insert the Snow Leopard Disk I burned and boot to it. It begins to load, all the way up to the spinney circle made of lines-- but then get the same screen, but where the stem of the apple is, I have a circle with a diagonal line through it, the No or not allowed symbol. I'm 99.9% sure my hardware is compatible, and my dad thinks it's a problem with my DVD. Does anyone know what the problem is? Is it the DVD, or something else. I have Windows Installed, so it may be that it detects that, but I doubt it because the disk hasn't even fully loaded.

Thank You,
zatipnis

I want to know what everyone uses for a computer and what they think of it. Also, say what you think about other operating systems. I want to have a nice debate about this.

(And this isn't just because I'm getting a new computer soon and want to know what to get )

I AM TYPING THIS ON MY WII'S SH**TY BROWSER AND MY MAC CRASHES EVERY TIME I TRY TO, SAY, OPEN THE DOCK. I ALSO HAVE THESE F**KING CORRUPTION LINES AND OTHER RANDOM GRAPHICS PHAILURES. PLEASE TELL ME I DON'T HAVE TO REINSTALL THE OS!

I know that it is a Mac, but is it a Mac Pro, PowerMac G5, or what?

Okay for starters, I had no idea what board to put this in. So I just went to Off Topic. Maybe there's a better one for it somewhere.

In my video class this summer, I'm working on my own independent project (Amulet 2 is someone else's problem), and my teacher let me take one of the editing computers (Macs) home over the weekend to work on it. I brought it home, set it up, and was about to start my project when Final Cut Pro, the software we use, wouldn't open.

I'm not very experienced with Macs, so I wasn't sure why. The application in the dock shows a question mark over the icon, and there's no shortcut to it in the Applications folder. What's stranger still is that there are no files for it in the Applications directory on the HD. Not even an empty folder. Nothing. I tried opening a FCP file, it said there was no default program for it. It's like the program was never installed, yet we were using it fine in class a few hours earlier.

I don't know, maybe this is just a freak accident, but has this ever happened to anyone before? Any advice? I called the teacher and he's as baffled as I am.

Hopefully SuperBrad will show up with some help.
