That must be a MDD model as I believe the later revisions were the only ones that had FW800. My Quicksilver only HD FW400.

You can install Mac OS 9.2.2 on those machines. That was the last Mac OS 9 version they released. That will run Pro Tools 5.

I think the last version released was PT 5.3.2. I don’t think there was a version 5.4 from memory, but were talking 20 odd years here sooooo... =P

You can download Mac OS 9 from here:

I think you can still find the old PT updates online, but unsure if they have the full installers or just point updates. Either way, you’ll need a serial to run one of those versions, which might not be that easy to come by. If you have one already, then I guess you’re good to go.

Best of luck!
