    Mini Mac

    Anything that says 'evaluation' or 'backup' is illegal - trust me on that one! Clearly, a backup is only legal if you own an original copy and, in general, as soon as you remove a disk from it's (secured) packaging, you agree to the terms and conditions of use. I don't ever remember Apple or...

    Tiger 10.4 clean install, no Classic support.

    I might just add to MisterMe's response that the two OS's have different system folder names - "System" on OS X and "System Folder" on OS 9, so there's no problem with the two existing on the same partition. You can then switch between the two using the Startup Disk option in the System...

    "Restart Computer" Message Frequently During Startup

    I'm not too familiar with 10.3.9 but from the look of the panic.log contents there could well be a problem with AirPort or the network setup. In the first instance I would disconnect any external devices (including the Airport base station) and start/restart the machine a few times, then try...

    Recovering data from damaged CDs - possibly with BSD?

    Hi All, Thanks for the advice so far. The slower-reading-speed idea had occurred to me, and as I have an old 8600/200 lying around I'll give it a try. One of the problems with my eMac (though I guess this may be the case with most Macs) is that it keeps switching between different...

    Recovering data from damaged CDs - possibly with BSD?

    Hi All - this is my first post, so bear with me... I'm currently trying to get a *big* file off of a CD (in the region of 700MB) but because of some scratches on the disk, all the applications I've tried to use get so far then just give up. Although I've been using Macs for a while there...
