[QUOTE="calculuscat, post: 1180523, member: 191175"] I have a second hand PowerMac G5 Power PC - one of the liquid cooled ones I believe. It is running Tiger OS. When I first recieved it I found that the DVD RW drive was not showing up in finder, and the manual eject was not working either. I have taken it to an authorised mac repair centre who have fitted a new dvd drive and told me the new one works fine.. yet I am still having the same problem!!! I am using a pc usb keyboard and mouse at the moment I am just wondering is the fact that I have not got a mac keyboard connected anything to do with my problem here? That seems a bit strange to me, but what is also strange is that the previous owner and the mac shop both assured me that the drive worked fine! I am obviously a massive noob to macs :[ someone help please [/QUOTE]
