Using Older Macintosh Programs
If you experience problems using an older Macintosh program, it may
be incompatible with your SuperMac C500 computer (as well as Apple
Power Macintosh computers). You may be able to use your older pro-
gram if you turn off the Modern Memory Manager in your Memory con-
trol panel. For best performance when using PowerPC native or
PowerPC accelerated applications, turn on Modern Memory Manager.
For detailed instructions on using older programs with your SuperMac
C500 computer, see the “Working with Programs” topic of Macintosh
Guide, available in the Guide menu.
Using the Built-in CD-ROM Drive
The CD-ROM drive provides access to large amounts of information.
The CD-ROM drive can read the contents of CD-ROM discs, standard
audio compact discs (CDs), and single-session or multisession Photo
CDs. However, you cannot use the drive to save information on CD-ROM
discs. ROM stands for read-only memory, meaning that the drive can-
not “write” information on CD-ROM discs.
Inserting a CD-ROM disc
Follow these instructions to insert the CD-ROM disc into your CD-
ROM drive. Then follow the instructions provided with your disc as
well as the instruction in this manual.
1.
Start up your SuperMac C500, if it’s not already on.
2.
Press the Open/Close button to open the tray of the CD-
ROM drive.
3.
Place a CD-ROM disc in the tray, with the label facing
up.
Make sure the disc is lying flat and centered in the tray.
