[QUOTE="Jonzjob, post: 1747755, member: 149248"] I have just tried the SMC reset but no difference. From what I have read there is a work around this and that the Apple super drive in not supposed to work with El Cap. The work around is so that the Apple techies can use a USB super drive in certain circumstances, but the work around I glanced at frightened me away, so if anyone knows a simple way around it I would be very grateful. I use that drive for photo CD/DVDs to give to the organisers of our village walking group, village fetes, etc. and although I can still do so on our iMac it is just more conveinent on here, the MBP. I have never had problems changing the OS before and have done so from Snow Leopard onwards and I have always used the same USB stick format. I have no idea what it's called but it has always worked. So it must be a case of a corrupted download/data? But I have decided and am quite happe on El Cap at the moment. Apart from the CD/DVD that is? [/QUOTE]
