New clean Install.... Well tonight I cleared off a partition and loaded basic 9.04 back on the partition, loaded toast 4.1.3, plugged in the QueFire and it (Toast) recognized it instantly. No hesitation. I'm inclined to blame it on OS 9.2.2.... But perhaps not, since I've got all the bells and whistles loaded on that partition, it may be an extension conflict with something else. Back on OS 9.2.2 partition.. Still (Toast) won't recognize it (burner) on the OS 9.2.2 partition but notice that something else launches if I have the CD burner switched on at boot up. It asks me to format the Disc for burning, and when I do it allows me to add items to the Disc but gives no dialogue to burn it till I try to put it away. Then it gives me the option to eject or burn. When I select burn, it just crashes the computer. Must be some support that is written into OS 9.2.2 that supports built in CD burners and it is recognizing my QueFire as that burner. Must also be the software that is blocking Toast from recognizing the presence of the burner too.
