What he's saying is:
"Why didn't you burn a Mac OS Extended/PC hybrid CD?"

Macs can burn CD's that are PC readable, but you must burn the data in hybrid format. Once its been written in Mac format, then there is no way that a PC will be able to communicate with the data.

So if you're trying to use a Mac CD-ROM or DVD-ROM in a PC, it won't work and there's nothing out there that will make it work.
