[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 942914, member: 56231"] Something else to try. Insert a disk - any choice - and then open Disk Utility. See if the optical drive is even recognised. If, as chscag suggests, the drive has 'died', then nothing will show in DU. Considering the complexities of replacing an internal optical drive, you might want to think seriously about using an external firewire drive instead. You might also want to use a different brand of drive. [/QUOTE]
