Title:

New superdrive install causing problems

Text:

I recently installed a new superdrive in my iMac and now discs will not mount. When I insert a CD or DVD the drive powers up and the discs show up in disc utility, but they never actually initialize. I am currently updated on all my software (10.5.8 and all software up to date), and the drive seems to be working mechanically, so I am stumped. HELP!

Device:

iMac Intel 20" EMC 2133 and 2210
