I'm really new to Mac's and need a little help on something.

I have a ibook G4 1.33 9/2005 build date and the damn thing crashed on me before I got any of my files off the computer.

The discs that came with it when I bought it says they are tiger 10.4, but when I tried to boot with them they never worked for me.

So when I tried to restore from the disc, it don't show up when I press C key or when I press option, after the computer boots up.

The only thing it has it a refresh, Hard drive and a foward logo, when I press the Hard drive NOTHING happens, but when I press the foward icon it restarts.

Could I have a set of bad disc's or am I doing something wrong.
