Hello,
I have old regular Power Mac G4 with Mac Os 9. At one moment I pressed YES button for one of those automatically loaded and ready to install software upgrade from MAC - I do believe it was latest iTunes version soft update - next time when I turned on my computer I saw new desktop design - typical blue Mac OSX - asking me for a password - I tried all my passwords and logins - did not work - then I learned how to get in without a password as an admin - as soon as I get in computer started to lead me through Mac OS X set up process - I never installed Mac OSX on this computer and never said YES to any Mac OS X installation question - I still do not know how this thing get to my computer - one way or another, the PROBLEM is that every time I run Mac OS X set up computer get freeze at 4th step - choosing a key board - US or Canada or else - It happen over and over again at the same point - I realized that this particular machine does not have sufficient resources to run Mac OS X - My question is - how can I get reed of this wonderful Mac OS X and get back to my old friend Mac OS 9 - It worth to mention that I do not have original Mac OS 9 set up disk.
Thank you for your help
Mike
