I have a 500mhz dual processor G4 overclocked to 550 mhz. Unfortunately, I jumped into the poor house on this computer and have to run both internet apps as well as my music apps on the same computer. Would the best way to go about this be to partition the hard drive or run it all together and use different extension settings?
I am so glad that I had the sense at the time to buy an external drive for audio  Any help would be appreciated. |

now thats to the whole audio will not go to OSX, I use Techtoolpro3 in OS9 and Drive10 In OSX, basicly that same program just that the manufacturer wanted to name the new version something different. I still really like that way Techtool works and drive10 has some working to be done. but on to the start of the fourm. Your g4 is outfitted with ATA drives, not the fastests but good reliable and inexpencive drives. You can pick up a 60GB drive for under $80. Now use you main drive for your apps, both audio and internet and the second drive for just audio files. You can get a program for OS9 call Conflict Catcher 9, this program will find problems with you control panels and extentions, but a side effect of it is that you can set up different start ups. Like and audio start up and a internet start up. Its a rather inexpencive program so check it out.
