Reinstalling Your Computer’s Software

In a few seconds the Macintosh desktop with the Launcher appears.

Now continue with the steps in “Reinstalling Your System Software” or
“Reinstalling All Your Original Software.”

Reinstalling your system software

Software can sometimes develop problems and may need to be replaced.
Restore System Software is a program that reinstalls the system software that
was on your computer when you purchased it.

Note: When you use the Restore System Software program, only system
software (all the Apple programs that run the computer) is reinstalled. All
other programs and documents remain on your hard disk.

Before you begin, you must start up your computer using the Macintosh
Performa CD: Performa Software.
For instructions, see the previous section,
“Using the CD-ROM Disc as Your Startup Device.”
