Problems using the CD-ROM drive
The CD-ROM drive icon does not appear on screen.
• If you have SCSI devices attached to your computer, make
sure that each device has a unique SCSI ID number.
Refer to the documentation that came with your SCSI devices
if you need to reset SCSI ID numbers.
• If you reinstall or re-enable the CD-ROM software, make
sure to restart your computer after you reinstall the software.
• The CD-ROM software has been disabled.
Use the Extension Manager to re-enable it. For detailed
instructions see the “Customizing Your Computer” topic of
the Mac OS Guide.
Your computer starts up and you see large folder-shaped areas, containing
labeled pictorial buttons, instead of the usual Mac OS desktop.
• Your computer may have started up from a CD-ROM disc
containing At Ease, an alternative to the Mac OS desktop.
You need to have the Mac OS desktop on your screen before
you can use any of the installation instructions in this
manual.
To return to the Mac OS desktop, choose Shut Down from the
Special menu. Power on your computer, and then
immediately press the Open/Close button on your CD-ROM
drive to open the tray. Remove the CD-ROM disc and gently
close the tray. Your computer finishes starting up.
To avoid having the computer start up from a CD-ROM disc,
remember to remove any disc in the drive before you power down
your computer.
