Dear David; Thanks for the tip, I will have to look in see if that is on my restore disks. I have read on some of the software forums, though, that it is best to install the second OS immediately, preferably on a different partition, or an alternate drive. Still, I may be brave and try it. If it is not on my restore disk, I do have a System 9 install disk. From my last CPU. Much appreciated! Valerie Voice recognition in use; I talk, iListen types, I correct. Neither of us is perfect. :-) On 11/19/04 1:31 PM, "David M.
