-- I have recently upgraded the Mac OS on my old 450 MHz iMac from 9.1 to 9.2.2 (mainly because of this was suggested by HP following a scanning problem on my new HP 1315 all-in-one). Now I find that Adaptec Toast 4.1.2 cannot find my Que!Fire CD burner any more (message: Cannot find CD. Check cables and power). I assume something has changed with the system upgrade?
-- What puzzles me is that Apple System Profiler says that the device is there on my Firewire port, ie: FireWire 2.8.5 > fw609e1 0483 > CD-R/RW SW-208B / Revision ID: BQO1 / Serial number: Not available / Product ID: sbp6O9e,104d8 / Vendor name: QPS / Sub revisionlD: Not available -- The Late Breaking News for the 9.2 update did say: "Apple CD-ROM extension and non-Apple CD1DYD driver incompatibilities. If you have a problem with a non-Apple CD or DVD drive, or you use an Apple CD or DYVD drive with a non-Apple driver, you may need to remove the file named "Apple CD/DVD Driver" from the Extensions folder (in the System Folder), and reinstall the software that came with your CD/DVD drive. Contact the CD/DVD manufacturer to see if you have the latest version of their software." -- On the off-chance that this might refer to the CD burner, I removed "Apple CD/DVD Driver" and tried to re-install Toast from my CD, but the system no longer recognized a CD in the internal drive (obvious, I suppose). I put the driver back, re-installed Toast from the CD, but nothing had changed, Toast could not find a CD. Same for Toast Lite 5.1. -- Also during starting or operation, the cursor would sometimes change to a whirling wheel, followed by a small bomb, and freeze. Don't know if this is relevant, haven't had it before. -- Any suggestions on what to do next? TIA.
