Hi Chris,
Does this drive have its own power supply?

well, I got an old u s b CD writer made by hp. I hooked it up and
plugged in to my Tiger machine but it's not seeing it. I dono what
model it is. My x mother inlaw got it off ebay one day when she was
on a Godly stupid rampage about yea, I'm f***ing rich, I can buy
whatever the h e double hockey stick I want, how I want when I
want. Yeah, she was kind of a jerk, but anyway, point is, I don't
know the model. I do know it doesn't seem to be recognised though.
I'm wonderring if anyone knows of any specific brands or even more
models that are external u s b that would burn CD's that I could get
that would just be, plug it in, and go. no drivers needed or at
least, if they are, that would be a sinch to install.
I don't have a burner on the mac, and really would kill to add one.
I don't feel good enough to pop the thing opened and install an
internal burner. I know how to do it, but due to my disability, I
do not have the fine motor skills needed to do it.
So, if anyone has a suggestion, I'd appreciate it.
Remember, this is Tiger 10.4.11. I also have all the current
updates with none less.
Chris.
