Bad news is it is a CD Rom not a CDRW . Good news is it is a 24x speed CDROM player likely the best player sold with a UMAX machine. It will need a driver other then the one which comes with Mac OS. It will most likely boot with the C key once you have a driver just like an Apple CD player. This did require OS 9.x with my machine with older Mac OS's it may well require the four key salute to boot. (option,Apple,shift and delete keys) Free Apple drivers that will work are located at: http://macdrivermuseum.com/disk.html get the Apple universal driver 5.3.1 for the CD rom driver and Apple universal driver 5.3.2 for audio disk drivers also you need to remove or turn off in extension manager the Apple CD driver 5.3.3?? I think it is as it only works with Apple cd players without being hacked. later Will S -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
