Hi folks. Back with a problem. It was freezing more than it should. So I cleaned out the hard drive.I installed from a CD 8.06 system which was an older system than I had been using. No G3.It seems to boot up ok but I notice there is no program showing on the drive. I saved the program from the other system. My question is how do I install the program folder? Any help would be appreciated. Regards, Norm. :-|gray

Hi Alex, thank you for your reply. It might sound dumb but I have tried copying the folder to hard drive nothing seemed to happen. When you say launching them how exactly do I do this. I have tried down loading Outlook Express 5 Mac version but the Computer does not want to open the installer. If you can help it would be appreciated. Regards.Norm. :sad:

Launching just means double clicking it.
Are you sure that OE version was right for your Mac? I'd be surprised that Microsoft would still offer anything for pre OS X systems.
