AFAIK Toshiba CD-ROMs were standard issue on Power Computing clones and were driven by Apple CD-Rom 5.3.1 (OS 7.6). Try that driver. There is a 3rd party all regions DVD player 0.94.16b available from <http://www.fred.elma.fr> which works on my tray-load Panasonic DVD-Rom mounted on my iMac 333. It may work with yours. >I'm aware of the problem of lvd and scsi slowing if on the same bus, but >its a home based system and speed of the H/D is immaterial to me now. Low voltage differential cables designed to work with SCA SCSI drives and draw power from the card do not affect CD-Rom or other drives connected to the power supply.
