OOPS! I forgot........to tell you what kind i had

[dezz]

It's a g4 and it is using classic and osx.  Sorry about that

Thanks dezz, does the G4 Boot from OS9? That would explain the model.

Maybe if you post what applications your using for the selected OS, we could direct you to the resources! There are folks here who specialize in different fields who may be able to explain some short cuts. There are also teacher here, who most likely have been faced with the same computing challenge.

Dezz, you can use FoolProof on Macs running OS 9.2.2 - our school system uses it and it is pretty commonly used by schools, and pretty effective.

I don't know if they're planning an OS X version - you might want to contact them and find out.

Hi guys, thanks for all your replys.  Still havnt figured out how to use it, but i think im actually quite happy with it running in osx anyways.  This will keep the system running, and let me play with it on weekends, trying to solve the problem.
