I've got a G5.

Can you read the CD at all? If not, it's probably HFS and not ISO9660. You might give MacDrive a try, they give you a free trial period. I think it's good for two weeks. It'll let you read pretty much any Mac HFS/HFS+ disc.

who made the CD? What app did they use? maybe the resource forks were lost when the CD was burned. or if it's a hybrid CD, Explorer might be getting confused.

I could give it a shot on my Mac if you need these files.
