CDROMs (burned by PC software) that mount just fine on my Rev/A, Bondi-Blue iMac won't mount on my Piusmo's DVD drive.

Any software or key-combination to try to read these my old data CDs?

TIA, T.

are you sure it is just pc burnt cds that have this problem?
did you check with mac burnt cds?
what about commercial ones, do they mount?

i've had problems mounting many different cds on my powerbook (firewire) and had to send it in to have the drive replaced

just a thought

Thanx, Rene.

My Pismo's DVD/CD drive (in the expansion bay) reads most CDs just fine; it's only the occasional old data-CDs (received from my Wintel-using clients) which often fail to mount.

These same old CDs mount on my iMac, though. I am more than a little puzzled by this, and was hoping for some PC-Exchange or keyboard-command "fix" was available.

I appreciated your comments, and may have my DVD/CD drive looked at the local Mac repair shop.

Regards, T.
