Is that the grey colored CD ? I also have an iMac OS 9.1 Install CD (grey) I have been able to install and OS in: Umax C500, PTPro's, 5500, 62/3xx's, 64/6500, 7300, 9600, beige G3's. Basically anything I've ever tried it in. Most of the Mac specific install CD's won't work in all machines but a select few will. -- Ron http://krowmagnum.4mg.com/ -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
