Q: Classic Environment on 10.5?
I have all of the install and restore discs that came with my computer (10.3) as well as retail version of 10.4 and 10.5. My computer had classic installed on it when I bought it, but when I upgraded to 10.5 it told me classic was no longer supported, I couldn't start up the classic environment or run any of my old games so I deleted my OS9 system files. Lately, I've really been wanting to play Taskmaker and SimTower.
My parents have an old iMac, and they still have all of the install and restore discs for it. Is there any way I can run Mac OS9 without reverting to a previous version of OSX or would I have to go back to 10.3/10.4 to play my old games again?

Sheepshaver is flaky, and also requires you to obtain a ROM image for a suitable machine, which is very difficult to do. Personally I should forget about it.
I'm afraid that as Leopard does not support Classic, the only way to get it is to run 10.3 or 10.4.
