picked up a graphite imac real cheap
previous owner claimed to have fried the hd and said it booted to firmware prompt but couldn't get it to work
i got it out of firmware mode-ran command-v or whatever the command was and it cycled through the firmware screen and reset
i installed a hd i had laying around(pulled from a working imac) with osx on it
graphite starts up and runs fine
problem is it doesn't recognize the internal slot loading cdrw
what gives?
do i need to install a firmware update?
do i need to do something in the hardware settings for it to be recognized?
when i pull up system profiler-it's not listed in devices and volumes
i do hear it spin when i insert a cd in the slot though
any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks for reading
