And try Apple's Universal CD ROM Driver 5.3.1. It shipped with OS 7.6 and
will drive many if not most CD-ROM drives.

If you're more adventurous, make a COPY of the Apple CD/DVD driver that came
with OS 9.x and hack it with Res-Edit:

BTW, the product that originally shipped with Power Computing machines was
the FWB CD-ROM Toolkit. But the above work-arounds should work.

Good luck,
