>>>It is possible you have a hardware problem but it is quite possible we are both unaware of some other sort of solution.
Amber Misery loves company, I guess. Donšt see how it could be a hardware problem in my case since both my internal and external drives are behaving the same way! >>>Total guess, have you tried http://www.patchburn.de/ ? According to their website, Q: Does PatchBurn support CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives? A: No, PatchBurn only supports CDRW and DVD writers. CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drives won't need PatchBurn. Since they are read only devices, they should be supported by Mac-OS X right out of the box. So no soap there either. Cheryl -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
