I think as a minimum you need to find what she was attempting to upgrade to. The only free path from 8.5.x is to 8.6. If she was trying to install a 9.x upgrade, that wouldn't work because OS 9.x is not a free upgrade. The minimum requirement for upgrade to an OS 9.x or higher is OS 9 already installed, which one has to buy. dave -- The iMac List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
