Not sure that's his problem guys ... a little clarification: how did you make these disks? On your PC? Or on the Mac?

If you made them on your PC, make them on your Classic instead. Start up using Cmd Opt X O and create your disks off the RAM Disk system partition from the boot ROM. Then use those to copy your files from your PC. You'll need special software to read the Mac disks though. Someone else can help with that if that's your problem. I don't do Windows.
