[famousj26]

i have a mac os 9.0 and i wanna update it to 9.1 so i can use classic, i downloaded the update off the apple site but it wont install because classic wont load up, i dont have the cd so im trying to figure out what to do to update to 9.1, thanx

Don't you have to do a firmware update to go from 9 to 9.1?

Can't remember now.

Confused though, are you running OS9 only?

im not sure, im a pc guy and its my gfs computer and i know nothing about mac computers at all.
i went to the startup disk and it says MAC OS X, 10.4.11 on untitled, idk what that means but i just want to figure out how to update this so i can run classic

My only real recommendation is to let your girlfriend know she needs a new computer...almost 10 years is a long time for a computer 😉

haha sad thing is she just got this for a present like 4 months ago lol, u have any idea how to update to 9.1, i downloaded the update but it wont install since it cant run classic to install it, any way to get around having to run classic to install it?

I don't think the computer supports Classic.

Apple pulled classic support with 10.3 I think. All I know is that under 10.4.11 your girlfriend can not run classic. Also I don't know why she would want to. Any development for OS 9 stopped almost 8 years ago.
