I'm working on a system and having some issues with WD's Data Lifeguard software - the CD .iso file to check some WD5001AALS drives.

I boot from it and get "Starting Caldera DR-DOS..." and the copyright info flashed on the screen then it goes blank. I've also been trying it in my own system with a (working) Velociraptor and it does the same.

I'm using ImgBurn (with verify checked) and have tried CD, DVD-R, and DVD+R discs; I've redownloaded the .iso and also tried the .zip version. I've burnt discs with my burner recently with no issues. Any ideas?

I found a known issue using the Data Lifeguard software with SATA optical drives (reading when booting from disc) - my own system has a SATA optical, but the system in question is IDE.
