Angry Really Crazy Question

And embarassing to boot. I somehow scrathced my DVD for Tiger. Using DiskDoctor, I was able to clean it and succeeded in Booting up for Utilities. Recently when I tried it bounced out again. Is there anywhere I can get a duplicate without paying the full price again? You can file this in the really stupid category. Any ideas, I thank you. Leighla

The first step would be to create a disk image of it using Disk Utility. Then, it depends. Do you have a DVD-R drive?

You might want to check with Apple. They might have a policy of giving you new discs if you return your old damaged ones. I know the Mathworks, the people who make MATLAB perform such a service as a lab mate who damaged his CDs managed to get them replaced for free (he paid for shipping).
