I have recently downloaded Mac OS 7.0.1, and I want to install it on my computer. Is there any special requirments that I should know of or need. It doesnt matter if I erase WINDOWS 98 as I have had enought with it because its on the wrong computer and is slow. The file I downloaded is called "System 7.0.1.smi". What am I sposed to do with it? Do I need a special installer? HELP ME
