I just bought a CD-RW drive off swap list, and it came with Toast and some other stuff. This drive is compatible with PeeCee's and Macs, so it has software for both on the disc. Now, when I put the disc in my CD-ROM drive, my Mac only sees the PeeCee software. No Toast, no nothing. I tried to read the disc in OS 9.1 and OS X, same thing happens in both OSes.
Michael,
It may very well be the CD-ROM drive. We have similar problems with an older CD-ROM in one of our machines. It can not read some of the CDs we burn on our burner. And it often has trouble with disks that come with some of the magazines.
Have you tried going ahead and connecting the CD-RW drive, and see if it can see the files on the disc? Most CD-RW drives can "read" CDs without installing any additional software.
