  Posted by Todd George on January 11, 2007 at 4:27 pm

  Hello and Happy New Year

  here is my problem

  bought this cdrom to use in my college class which begins this Sat

  the copyright on the package says 2003

  the system requirements for the cd (which is a director show)

  state Power Mac (G3 or higher)

  OS 8.1/8.5/8.6/9x/OSX (classic Mode Only)

  I tried to run it on my dual 2GHZ PowerPC G5 under )S 10.4.8
  but I get “There is no volume with a Mac OS 9 system folder for Classic to Use

  so am I S.O.L or is there a work around or something I need to install

  thanks in advance for any help on this one

  take care

  hello…

  os x has not included os 9 for i think 2 releases now…you will have to find a computer that is running classic or use something like this:

  however for that, you will need a copy of classic…
