kJams works with ALL drives that are capable of ripping / burning CD+G media.
If you're imagining it's possible to "just write a new driver or update the software somehow to enable other drives that are not yet compatible", well, that's not within the realm of the physical laws of this universe.
Think of it this way: there is just no way (literally the physics won't work) to play a Blu-Ray disc in a CD drive. The hardware for decoding the data just isn't even built into the drive. The ONLY possible way to read a Blu-Ray disc is to get a drive CAPABLE of reading a Blue-Ray disc. The same EXACT thing is true for CD+G.
The waters seem muddy for those who don't know, because SOME CD / DVD drives are in fact capable, while some are not. But the fact that SOME are capable leads people to think that ALL drives must be capable with some software tweak.
If kJams says "you need a new drive", then you do, there's no other way.
Read this article to find a compatible drive.
