I purchased my computer with Panther preinstalled as well as other preinstalled software. Namely Quicken 2004, AppleWorks, Sound Studio, and a couple games. After installing Tiger, can I reinstall these from the eMac installation DVD that came with my machine?

For the most part and for most people, the answer is yes.

Why not just try to see if you can install it right now on Panther and if that works, 99% guarantee it will work in Tiger.

I just did exactly that. When you put the eMac DVD in, there should be an option to only install the Bundled Software.

Thank you both.

I'm trying to plan out my upgrade to Tiger before I get it.
