[QUOTE="johntalin, post: 305144, member: 24431"] I have a G4 400 "Sawtooth" also. I was running OS9 for a long time, then I added OS10. OS10 comes with Classic option so that you can run your OS9 and OS10 together on the same computer. The Classic will run only if you have OS9 installed. Since Classic is just to bridge OS9 and OS10 systems, it will not work with systems older than OS9. My HD shows two separate System Folders. Classic mode activates OS9 and OS9 system runs through Classic. If you had OS9 you would be able to run it separate from OS10 also. Since you don't have OS9 system, Classic starts (Opening Classic) to search for OS9, because you are trying to run an old software. But "Cannot find Mac OS9 System Folder" because there isn't any. The bottom line is that you need OS9 System installed. Sorry, If I spelled it out too long. [/QUOTE]
