Apple Power Macintosh 9500 Series - Manual (Page 88)

If you installed a CD-ROM player after you bought your computer and your computer
won’t restart after you’ve copied software for your CD-ROM player to the System Folder.
m If you attempt to install software for your CD-ROM player without using
the Installer, you may not be able to restart your computer. Restart the
computer while holding down the Shift key (to turn off system extensions),
and then remove any CD-ROM software files you copied by dragging them
to the Trash. Reinstall the software according to the instructions that came
with the drive.
If this procedure doesn’t solve the problem, start your computer using the
Disk Tools floppy disk. (For instructions on starting your computer using a
floppy disk, see “Starting Up From a Floppy Disk,” later in this chapter.)
Your computer starts up and you see large folder-shaped areas, containing labeled
pictorial buttons, instead of the usual Macintosh desktop.
m Your computer may have started up from a CD-ROM disc containing At
Ease, an alternative to the Macintosh desktop. You need to have the
Macintosh desktop on your screen before you can use any of the
installation instructions in this manual.
To return to the Macintosh desktop, choose Shut Down from the Special
menu. When your computer is off, press the Open/Close button of your
CD-ROM player to open the tray, then remove the CD-ROM disc. Close the
tray. Then start up your computer again.
To avoid having the computer start up from a CD-ROM disc, remember to
remove any disc in the CD-ROM player before you shut down your computer.
