I would be happy to get just as far as 10.1.5 (inorder to run a piece of software) but alas I can not seem to solve this problem. I will try to remove some ram (although it has run well with it installed on 9.2.2) The 30 gig HD seems to be ok but I guess I could try to reinstall the orig 5 gig...I am at a loss...
TIA Art << --------------- Art, Do try removing any RAM that you may have added. Many user report sites have reported that RAM that may ahve worked like a charm under OS 9, may not work under OS X at all. So, try the original RAM that came with the machine. Two other possibilities, and I can't recall if these have been suggested and tried: 1) remove all USB devices (other than your keyboard and mouse), 2) make sure that your machines firmware is up to date. One could also ensure that any virus protection is off, and that OS 9 is not in Multi-User mode...four, four suggestions. Jerry -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
