How do I copy a the OS X DVD that came with my Mac using a Windows machine?

0

Even with a clean install of Mountain Lion on an internal SSD, 8 GB of RAM, saving the ISO image to the internal SSD and two different brands (Verbatim & Titan) of unused dual layer DVD+R discs, Disk Utility will not burn the image without encountering errors (4 attempts failed).

Of course, there shouldn't be a problem and it may be the DVD drive but until that's fixed, I just want to create copies of the DVDs that came with my Mac.

Is there a way to use a Windows machine to copy and burn a dual layer DVD for use in a Mac?

You can try ImgBurn and create an ISO or BIN+CUE image, but I'm not sure whether it will copy the entire disc or just the Windows portion.

ImgBurn will work fine.

At least it has for me in the past, for this very same thing.
