Ron, the drivers worked. I installed Apple's Universal CD ROM Driver 5.3.1 and my CDs work without having to have the System CD in the drive at boot, however, that driver still does not read Audio CDs, but that's where Apple's Universal CD ROM Driver 5.3.2 comes in, but, after that, the drive stoped working again, so I copied the first driver back over to the extensions folder, and now it's all working (including Audio CDs)..
