Which CD? The original poster states Partition Magic. This is not a
Microsoft product.

Locate ISOBuster. This should let you to get as much of the usuable
files off the CDs. Then, you need to locate info on how to create a
bootable CD with another software.

Another possibiility is to contact Symantec and ask their replacement
CD policy.
 
Yep, I misinterpreted it. I read that as a backup of the installed system
disk.

actually I believe I already have all the files including
BOOTCAT.BIN, BOOTIMG.BIN, AUTORUN.EXE, AUTORUN.INF
So if I user VPC to write out to a blank CD iso file, and then use Nero to
write to CD from ISO file. will that boot or do I need to do something
special.?


Last Time I installed isobuster got problems on the PC. don't know which
site I should download form. the smart project or the isobuster.com?
