Wow, that's a might big leap without knowing what kind of CDs (are they be Windows CDs?) and if all of the correct drivers are installed and active. I even recall a few months ago that some newly released audio CDs had a copy-protection scheme that caused all kinds of havoc. I haven't heard much about it lately, so I don't know what the status is on that front. The first thing I would try is to put in an Apple System install CD, which is bootable and see if it works. If it does, then check to see that you have all of the right CD drivers, then see if you can determine what kind of CDs they are. BTW it would help to know what OS are you using on the Wallstreet.
