TOPIC

    I am having problems getting a AppleCD SC drive connected to my Power Macintosh 6100 with the DOS Compatibility Card installed to recognize DOS CD-ROM discs. The show up correctly on the Macintosh desktop, but when I try reading them O, and I cannot get DOS CD-ROM discs to read correctly in when I switch to MS-DOS.


DISCUSSION


    You can use the AppleCD SC drive for Macintosh CD-ROM discs, but not for MS-DOS CD-ROM discs.

    This problem only occurs with the AppleCD SC drive. The AppleCD SC Plus, AppleCD 150, AppleCD 300, or AppleCD 300 Plus drives work without a problem.

    With the AppleCD SC drive, you can sometimes read directories, however trying to run applications from the disc results in the error message "CDR101: Not ready reading drive E, with Abort/Retry/Fail."
