Good Morning,

I have a PB 15" that is less than a week old. I am having difficulty installing from CD's with the SuperDrive. For example I am trying to install VPC 7.0. I am able to install thru the first disk however, when I put Disk 2 in when prompted the SuperDrive just clacks away repetitively. The disk eventually shows up on my desktop but the SuperDrive is not able to access it to continue the installation. It is VERY difficult to get the SuperDrive to eject the disk.

I have had other difficulty with a CD that was burned on a brand new iBook G4 ComboDrive. There is a pdf file on the CD that that PB should be able to see however, the CD image does not even show up on the desktop.

Thank you for any suggestions.
PowerBook G4 15" 1.67ghz; 80gig; 128mb ATI 9700; Mac OS X (10.3.8); 512mb ram (more to come)
