When I stick a DVD into my DVD Super Drive, the DVD automatically starts up. Depending on which G4 you have (I use a Quicksilver dual 1 Gig Processored one) there are volume controls on the keyboard (volume up/down and mute). Make sure it isn't set to mute or have the volume turned way down. There is also a remote control that appears when a DVD is activated. I prefer the OS X version, but one also appears in OS 9 also. I haven't played a DVD recently in either OS, so I cannot tell you whether there is a volume control on the remote, but I would check there too. Otherwise, check your speaker connections (if any). Hope this helps in some small way. Good Luck KOG -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
