GeoPort 1.x: System 7.1.x and System Update 3.0 Install (5/95)


This article details the install order for GeoPort software on System 7.1.x with the System Update 3.0.

There is a conflict between the GeoPort 1.x installer for Power Macintosh and Quadra AV computers with System Update 3.0.

The GeoPort software installer will hang or freeze, usually after clicking the OK button, at the "Welcome to the GeoPort Installer" window. You may get further in the install process and receive an error indicating the installation could not continue, then hang or freeze after clicking the OK button in the error window.

The workaround is to follow the install order below:

1) Install System 7.1.x
2) Install GeoPort 1.x
3) Install the System Update 3.0

The key is to install System Update 3.0 last. If you have a problem installing the GeoPort software, start by doing a clean system software installation, then follow the order shown above.
