Replacing your special software
Special software consists of items such as control panels, system extensions,
custom utilities, fonts, or Apple Menu Items that you may have added to your
old System Folder. To make sure that special software does not create any
conflicts with other programs on your computer, follow this procedure to
safely add back these items in your new System Folder:
1Copy any special software items from the Previous System Folder back to your System
Folder one item at a time, restarting the computer after copying each item.
IMPORTANT
Be very careful not to replace (copy over) any of the files in the
System Folder with files from the Previous System Folder.
2Check after each restart to make sure your computer is not having any software problems.
If any of your special software items cause software problems, contact the
software manufacturer for assistance or an upgrade.
If you erased your hard disk prior to installing system software, certain system
extensions or application programs that were originally on your hard disk may
need to be reinstalled. Some additional extensions and programs are on the
CD-ROM disc that contains system software. System extensions or application
programs from other vendors can be reinstalled from their installation disks.
