Please help!!! I am relatively new to the starmax and it's wonderful ways. I have a Starmax 3000/200, and a 4000/160 and a 3000/180. I use the 3000/200 at my home and the others are for in my office. I recently purchased from ebay a Smart and Friendly SpeedWriter Plus CDRW (SCSI) format. Then when we oenid the computer to install the CDRW, that was when we first discovered that it had SCSI, IDE and ATAPI platforms available. Anyhow, the Smart and friendly was supported by Toast 4.1.3. This worked so very well that I got on ebay and purchased 2 more Smart and Friendly (IDE) SpeedWriter CDRW's NOT SPEEDWRITER PLUS...AND NOT SCSI!! After we installed them---they just will not work. The light comes on the CRW whirls, but Toast does not recognize it, and of course no CD comes on. Is there a macintosh driver out there anywhere for these Smart and Friendly? The company is now out of business.
Also, I bought a Philips CDRW800 series (804K) CDRW for in the fourth StarMax. Guess what---same problem. If anyone knows where a driver to fit these might exist---I greatly appreciate any help you can give me. Please email me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] PS- This forum is great!
