Iomega CDRW and first iMac233

Author	Topic
rvhd Starting Member Norway 1 Posts	Posted - 04 Oct 2003 : 10:07:44 Hello, I just recently bought a Iomega CDRW burner and have tried to install it in a iMac 233 (Bondy Blue) with MacOS 9.2 The iMac just freeze when it starts with the Burner plugged on the USB port. Anyone out ther have experienced the same issue ? Does one of you know what kind of USB is on the BondyBlue : USB 1.0 or USB 1.1. Could a difference of version explain the freeze ? Thank you for your help. Edited by - Supermod on 04 Oct 2003 14:49:39
