| Help! Installing Tiger I have very little knowledge about how computers work, so bear with me here. I bought Tiger Mac OS X v10.4 for my Power PC G4. Every time I try to install the software, everything goes fine until the very end, when it tells me, "There were errors installing the software; Please try installing again." Polite, but not very helpful. I checked the requirements, and my computer has everything; a DVD drive, built-in firewire, at least 256 MB of RAM, 3 GB of disk space available. Please help me install this! Last edited by eleanor269; December 31st, 2005 at 04:20 PM. |

| Ok, you answered my question about your optical drive in adriano's thread. Are you sure you purchased the full version and not the upgrade version? The upgrade version only works if you are going up from a previous OS like 10.3. The full version will allow you to install on a Mac without an operating system installed.
