CDR's + Powerbook 1400c/166

Never had a problem with mine. Something about the media? Is this CD-R, not -RW?
It may be a dying optical drive. My 8x drive works fine reading CD-R's in 8.6 or 9.x
As you are lucky enough to have the 12x drive, you can easily replace it with the 24x Teac Drive.

Oh... kayyyy...

That sound's great!
As far as I know, one's ability to burn CDs in the classic Mac OS depends upon the burner used being supported by the one's software. It shouldn't pose a problem for reading disks, though (provided you're using a relatively recent version of Mac OS).
You could try Toast (5.x needs Mac OS 9.x, but 4.x or older should work if you're using 8.5 or 8.6)
Take this advice with a grain of salt. I may be totally wrong!
