Try burning at 2x. I've had a similar problem with an older SPARC drive, and was given that solution. Seems to work. Or try burning at the CD reader's native speed (which in the SPARC's case is 2x :). JFTR my burner is 8x write, so even that small a change can make a difference. >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. Yep, should. It's a CD reader with some extra stuff. ----- Jeffrey J. Nonken http://jnork.nonken.net/ -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
