Not Recognizing A CD

2009-07-06 Thread m.smurph001

Hello,

The other day I got the bright idea to reinstall Starcraft on my  
digital audio G4. The program wouldn't run because it needed to  
install from the Starcraft CD. What is going on here?

The optical drive is a Pioneer OEM DVD burner I got from Other World.  
It has been giving me error messages when I try to burn CDs of late.  
I have a processor upgrade which required modifying the boot rom so  
it can run OS X, which is 10.4.11. I screwed up when I modified the  
boot rom. This computer can run OS X and it can run system 9 under OS  
X but it can't boot into system 9.

Any ideas here?

How to install Starcraft

2009-06-20 Thread m.smurph001

I've tried to install Starcraft on my Digital Audio G4. I try to run  
the installer program from the CD and I get an error message saying I  
need to run the program from the original CD, which is in the machine  
and on the desktop.

I am running OS X 10.4.11. I have installed 1.6Mhz processor upgrade.  
When I installed it I ran the installation CD which came with it and  
apparently I didn't update the rom so it will boot into OS 9. It will  
run OS 9 from OS X. I'm not sure what this has to do with it. Like I  
say I am getting an error message telling me to install from the  
Starcraft CD, which is what I'm running the installation program from.

Thanks

Updating Max OS X 10.4.11

2009-05-28 Thread m.smurph001

I just got broadband back and I have been attempting to upgrade from  
10.4.11. So far none of the system updates will run. I have a Digital  
Audio G4. I get to the select volume screen and none of my volumes is  
selectable.
