Do you mean that the computer will not boot from the HD with the CD-Rom connected or just that you cannot boot from a bootable CD?

I've got a Power Computing Power Base 200 here with a non-functioning cd-rom
drive.  When it was brought to me, the cd was constantly running and not
letting the computer boot.  We disconnected the scsi and power from the  cd
and got the computer to boot.  It had a lot of dust bunnies etc. in it, so
we've cleaned it out.  Now the original cd, or a direct replacement drive
neither will boot.  Other than installing CDRomToolkit are there other
things I should try to get the cd going?
