Kumar,
Thank you; I would have cleaned the computer long ago, but I wasn't sure what harm might be done, I might inadvertently delete something important.
The scanner and the computer were working (albeit slowly), so I didn't want to fix something that wasn't broken.
But last night I spent a long time scanning film that shouldn't have taken so long to do. The G5 was available and I took it.
I'm now running OS 9.2.2 on the G5, though it's not used as the startup disk.
Getting a SCSI card to see if hooking up the scanner will work on the G5, and if the scanner and computer will communicate.
The possibility of starting from a clean computer is more appealing than deleting files off an old computer.
While I install software on the G5, I'm not changing anything on the G4, it scans and runs as before.
