Hi Wilton, Open System Preferences in OS X and select under System, select Classic. In that window, you can start Classic, select Classic to start at startup or warn before starting Classic. You can also select which version of OS 9.1 you want. In that same window by choosing the Advanced tab, you can choose to start Classic with extensions off and also rebuild Classic desktop. HTH.
