Optical drive not recognized in 10.6 but works when booted in 10.5
I have a Macbook A1181 with Snow Leopoard installed. The optical drive is not recognized in the OS, but I can boot from it. In fact, I installed another hard drive, installed a new OS (10.5) and the drive is recognized. I have also installed another optical drive with the same results.
I ran the Software Update in 10.6, but no change.
It looks like there is a software problem in the OS. How can I fix the software to recognize the optical drive?
Thanks.

Please give us a history of your MacBook, has the optical drive been replaced before? The last numbers of your serial number? Outside of not being seen, does the drive function properly?

I just acquired this system. I don't know if it has been replaced before. Last numbers of serial number: 6HZ5Y. As I mentioned, I can boot from the optical drive. When the system is booted from a different hard drive which I installed Leopard on, the optical drive works.
