My recent experience with this issue (9-23-03) was resolved with the 
following steps:

1. Convert the image files to bitmap (.bmp) format using GraphicConverter or 
save a copy of them in that format with the original creation software.
2. Use Roxio Toast Titanium to burn the CD and select the "Mac OS and PC 
(hybrid) CD" format for it. This selection is available in the drop-down menu 
right above the data window of the Toast interface.
3. Select the burn speed at one step slower than the maximum recommended by 
the Toast software.

I was able to make copies of desktop pictures that I had saved as JPEG files 
and they read perfectly on my friend's PC. He is now using the images as his 
"wallpaper".

For some reason, his PC would not read a JPEG file even when the CD was made 
as a hybrid. It took three tries, but the system described above worked to our 
satisfaction after I converted the images to the bitmap format.
