TOPIC

    When I install the Apple Multiple Scan Display software on a PowerBook 200 Series computer (Duo) running System 7.1.1, everything installs fine. However, when I install the same software on a Power Macintosh 6100/66 or 7100/80/AV running System Software 7.5, the Energy Saver control panel does not install. Why not?


DISCUSSION

    The Power Macintosh 7100/80, 8100/100 and 8100/110 computers were tested with the energy saver utility software from the Connectix Desktop Utilities which shipped with these models in the Apple Extras folder. That is the only energy saver software that should be installed onto these Power Macintosh computers.

    The Apple Multiple Scan Display software does not install on any Power Macintosh computer which is running System Software 7.5. This is because the Multiple Scan Display software functionality (but not the Energy Saver Control Panel) is already included in System Software 7.5.
