I have now Aplle G4 700Mhz computer with OS 9.2 and I just bought Samsung TS-H292 CD-RW to it. The system doesn't have driver to burn CDs. Samsung don't distribute Mac drivers.

Where can I search drivers for Mac? Is it possible that OS X have installed drivers for that Samsung CD-RW? In the Apple store new MAC CD-RW costs five times more than my Samsung.

I went to the samsung website and they only had the pc
drivers. Maybe it is not mac supported. Otherwise I don't
know if Mac OS has the right drivers for it. You can still
email samsung from their download page.

i had to replace my CDR once.
i was told that not every internal CDR will work on a mac. and also that some will work but you won't be able to boot from.

there are 4 companies that their CDRs will defenatly work and they are:
1)sony
2)philips
3)toshiba
4)i don't remember

the new CDR i got was from sony. since my old one that came with the computer was sony.
i didn't need no driver.

see if you can replace the one you have.

also try to look on apple support page sometimes apple makes drivers for hardware.
it's a long shot but it might work.
