Here is the d/l page for System 7.5.3 update <http://download.info.apple.com/Apple_Support_Area/ Apple_Software_Updates/English-North_American/Macintosh/System/ Older_System/System_7.5_Version_7.5.3/> Another method which I used (if you have the equipment available, of course) to quickly install the update was I burned a CD containing all the update pieces then installed onto my 5300cs via an old external SCSI CD drive.
