Please excuse the "WAY OT" call for help here - I think this is the best place to get fast help and that's what I need 😉
I just got a little Powerbook Mac 3400C (OS 8.6) here and plugged it into my network, configured to share my cable modem through my WinXP ICS and was online & thought I would upgrade the IE 4 to IE 5.
Got the download, clicked it & went to press AGREE on the EULA when the mouse passed over "PRINT" it thought it heard something so started up a print spooler and after a long time came up with an error to which I pressed "CANCEL" and then the thing just hung there. After a long time it came up with a text box. I can type in the text box, I cant click anything on the screen.
This is my first time out with an apple machine, so I've got that newbie feeling.
Are there some magic keys to press or something when this happens?
I don't even see how to remove the battery to completely power the thing down.
removed battery & restarted... it wasn't happy but it's ok now.
