(I'M NOT USING THE ORIGINAL CD-ROM, IT DIED AWHILE BACK, THERE IS A SECOND CD-ROM <A BURNER> THAT I'M USING <IT WAS INSTALLED BY THE PAST OWNER>. WITHOUT STARTING THE COMPUTER <HAVEN'T TRIED THE REBOOT YET> I CAN'T AT THIS TIME GIVE YOU THE BRAND. BUT THE THERE ARE THINGS ABOUT THE CD-ROM THAT HAVE CONCERNED ME IN THE PAST: WHEN STARTING THE COMPUTER THE EXTENSIONS LOGOS PARADE THEMSELVES AT THE BOTTOM OF THE START UP PAGE. THE CD WITH A STARBURST COMES ON AND THEN A QUESTION MARK COMES ON TOP OF IT. I THOUGHT IT HAD TO DO WITH THE REMOVAL OF THE OLD CD-ROM. THE OPPERATING CD-ROM SEEMS TO WORK, I HAVE NO TROUBLE BURNING DISKS, IT READS CDS I'VE BURNT. HOWEVER IT HAD SOME PROBLEM READING SOME OTHER CDS, SUCH AS THE CDS FROM MAC MAGAZINES. I THOUGHT THAT IT MIGHT JUST BE THE CDS, BUT YOUR QUESTION MAKES ME WONDER IF THE CD-ROM IS BEING SOMEHOW SELLECTIVE OR FAULTY.
