Tyler writes, <The optical drive in my digital audio seems to have a problem with my WarCraft II CD. When running the game from either the CD or from the hard disk, I get the "insert CD" message, despite having no trouble with the CD itself, the game's installer, and even listening to the audio tracks in itunes. It also gave me the same problem when run after booting into OS9 (and a couple different incarnations of OS X). After I popped the disk into my Performa 6200CD on a lark, the game worked just fine, no trouble at all. I haven't had any problems with any other CDs, including booting from them. Could this be the drive's fault, or maybe some unique conflict between drive and disk?>
Several months ago, I had a problem I'll call "similar" in the sense that the internal CDRW in my G3 would do anything I asked from CDs EXCEPT boot from my bootable ones. For me, making copies of the two CDs in question solved the problem. No, I don't know what caused this misbehavior, only that making the new CDs fixed it. So naturally, I suggest that perhaps if you make a copy of your WarCraft II CD and play from the copy, you'll be fine? ~Yersinia. ________ "Girls will be girls, boys will be toys." -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
