> I believe that's the same problem I had some time ago with my C500--I replaced my HD and did a clean install of store-bought OS 9.1. At that point, I lost the CD-ROM. People on this list helped me fix it, but I disremember the exact problem. I know it had something to do with the fact that I didn't do an incremental upgrade of the OS. The solution was to replace OS 9's Apple CD-ROM/DVD extension with Apple CD-ROM from OS 7.6 . After that, it worked fine.
