Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X

Asked Aug 23, 2003, 07:42 AM — 1 Answer
Dear Folks,

I would like some help on my imac 366mhz I have mac os 9.0,9.1,9.2 and I recently bought mac os x and mac os 10.2 update and I bought it because I thought it would run faster but the problem is that all the games are for the mac os x and all the software e.g Microsoft Word, Toast Titanium is for the mac os 9.2 I was just wanting to ask if I could split my 60gb hard drive into two seprate ones so that I could have one on mac os 9 and one mac os x so that I could run all my software and games on the same hard drive mac os 9 and mac os x ? ? :-/ :'(

Please Help

Nick

Re: Mac OS 9 and Mac OS X
You don't need to partition your hard drive to run the various system supported applications.
All you have to do is run your mac in OSX. Any applications that are formatted in the old System 9, will automatically open using the "Classic" mode.
It can't get any easier.
I leave my machine 24/7 and once you open and old System 9 application or document, the "Classic" mode will be in the background. The saves time waiting for the classic mode to boot-up.
Have a great day.
