Then that's definitely the problem.  With the drive you should have
got some disks with the extension and some other stuff you need on them.

Can't remember the directory at the moment.

Start at http://www.apple.com,
   look for software download,
      look for macintosh
         look for system software
            look for ... erm ... hardware, drivers, CD-ROM ?

It's a disk image or two, and you need more than just the extension,
but everything should be on the same disk images.  You'll need a
copy of Disk Copy, too, which you should find in a Utilities
directory near there.
