Thank you, Matt. It was my understanding that some external hard drives
would not be recognized by firewire after I upgraded, and this did occur
after I upgraded to 10.2.8. I don't have another firewire device currently
to try; so it may be just the external drive that won't work with the
update.
When I upgraded from 10.1 that came with the iBook, to purchased Jaguar, the
CD-RW quit working.
I do need to keep this iBook for awhile, and it's important to my work
(college prof), so my plan is to at least upgrade memory and try another
external drive. The CD-RW is a pain but I'll have one at my office.
Basically I need a really prolific word processor, but would like to retain
the other features I paid for if you have any other ideas as to what may be
wrong.

or not you need to run classic depends on if<br>>you have apps. that will
only run in classic mode. As<br>>far as losing firewire and CD-RW after
upgrading to<br>>10.2.8, I don't see how upgrading would cause
that<br>>problem. I'd say that theres something worng if you<br>>lost
those after you upgraded to 10.2.8. I have Tiger<br>>running on my 600
and it runs fine, but I don't use<br>>any classic apps. so I can't say
weather or not<br>>they'll run okay or
not.<br>><br>>Matt<br>><br>>--- Judy Castles-Bentley

such a basic question, but if I upgrade my<br>>iBook G3/700 hard drive,
would I still want to run<br>>Classic? Would I lose a lot of applications
if I<br>>installed Tiger? (I've already lost firewire<br>>recognition
and CD/RW, which I believe is a result of<br>>upgrading to 10.2.8.)
