Why does the computer want to initialize a CD?
————————————————— The computer probably doesn’t recognize the CD’s format. In most cases, this means that certain files aren’t installed in the System Folder, or failed to load at startup. To read audio CDs under System 7.1 and later using the Apple CD software, you need the following files in your Extensions folder: Apple CD-ROM Audio CD Access Foreign File Access To read certain types of CD-ROMs, you’ll need Foreign File Access, as well as some other files. The Foreign File Access extension works with any CD-ROM driver. Other files you may need include Audio CD Access, ISO 9660 File Access, High Sierra File Access, and Photo CD Access. In most cases, reinstalling the CD-ROM software will cure the problem. Make sure the necessary files haven’t been disabled by a startup (extensions) manager.
