My system info is in the screenshot. After release of Lion I decided to do a clean install of OS on my MBP. Done successfully. Made a windows partition with bootcamp, inserted my win 7 cd which I burned from a downloaded image of windows installation disk from microsoft.com, my mac is telling me that the disk is blank...
I used this same disk before when I had snow leopard, worked with no problems. I thought maybe the disk got scratched, or something is wrong with it, so I tried it on my sisters macbook with snow leopard, works fine.
When i restart, it automatically tries to boot into the bootcamp partition which is blank, doesnt recognize the cd either. I just get a black screen and something that says it cant boot. The only way i can boot into my Lion partition at start up is by holding opt key and choosing it. Its also the only choice that shows.

So what do I do now? (apple store is not an option, I'm currently out of country for a while)
