[muglo] CR Drive or other woes!

Some of you may remember my unsolved problem of Scanner and Zip drive.

Now my CD Drive has packed it in by giving a message "Apple CD Drive is not
responding".  It seems to me that there are a number of possibilities:

1  Could it be that the CD Drive has died?  If so is there anyway of
checking this and if so, can one get a replacement (its a Performa 5260)?
And then can one install it?

2  Could it be a SCSI problem?  If so can anything be done about that?
(Incidently I tried it with the Zip Drive disconnected in case that was the
problem and this made no difference) (the Zip Drive works OK)

3  Could it be a corruption of the Op Sys?  This can't be reinstalled as it
is on a CD which can't be used!!!

4  Any other suggestions??

Thanks in advance for any help that can be given.

Paul
