----- Hi Claude,
You mentioned Norton detected a problem. Norton
detected a "problem" on my system. Attempts to repair caused all sorts of
other difficulties. I was told by my computer boffin that my Norton had
collected so many updates via downloads that it didn't know what it was doing
anymore. We trashed that Norton version. Bought the newest one (cause we do
like Norton) and the problem just disappeared.
I wonder if this akin to
your to advice re older software.
BTW Thanks for taking the time to respond to
Fran's query.

... when
Norton detected a problem and I attempted to fix it. The result was that the
OS 9 would not boot forcing me to reformat the drive. I just installed
OS 10.3 rather than do an install from the original CDs. OS 10.3 is stable and
you should have no problem with the look and feel of the new OS. There
is a problem in that some older software do not have versions that will work
in OS 10.3 and this may force you to develop
workarounds.
