Installing or r einstalling CD-ROM softwar e
CD-ROM software is a set of programs and files that allow your CD-ROM
drive to work correctly with your computer and allow it to play different
kinds of CDs, like Photo CDs or audio CDs. If your computer came with a
CD-ROM drive installed, the CD-ROM software is part of system software
and was preinstalled for you on your computer’s hard disk. (It is also available
on floppy disks and a CD-ROM disc that came with your Macintosh.)
If you added a CD-ROM drive after you bought your computer, the CD-ROM
software is probably on floppy disks that came with the drive.

When should you instal l or reinstall CD-ROM software?

If your Macintosh came with the CD-ROM drive already installed, you don’t
need to install the CD-ROM software unless you encounter problems. (See
“Solutions to CD-ROM Problems” earlier in this chapter for descriptions of
the kinds of problems you might encounter.)
If you added a CD-ROM drive after you bought your computer, you should
install the CD-ROM software before you attempt to use the CD-ROM drive.
