As an interim solution you can leave a bootable CD-ROM disk in the tray of the reader at startup. This will load the universal driver on the CD-ROM into the System heap at startup. Any other CD-ROM loaded into the reader during that session will be handled with that driver. If the disc is not present at startup, the driver will not be loaded. To enable the use of non-HFS discs, the following files need to be present in the "Extensions" folder of the "System Folder" of the boot volume: "Foreign File Access" [the others won't work without this], "Audio CD Access", and "ISO 9660 File Access". The above are part of a standard installation of System 7.6.1, and have not changed substantially since 1997; they are actually libraries called by the driver, so they they cannot cause conflict nor memory bloat as a file of type "INIT" or "appe" which are loaded at startup might. Additionally, I highly recommend the latest version [1.4.2] of "Joliet Volume Access" <http://www.tempel.org/joliet/>. This is a really well-done bridge between CD-ROMs derived from FAT and HFS images. HTH, paul -- Paul F. Henegan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
