System 7.1 is a good idea. My Macintosh LC runs perfectly with it (not slow at all, especially if you have 10 MB of RAM)

BTW, just make a clean system reinstall the informal way.

Quoted from Macs For Dummies 4th Ed:

Open your System Folder. See the Finder icon? The purpose here is to separate it , folder-wise, from the System suitcase icon. Drag the Finder out onto the desktop, for example, as shown here.
You're doing beautifully. Now close the System Folder window, press Return, and rename the System Folder. (Call it "Old System" or something like that)

Finally, take the Install Me First disk (or your Performa Apple Backup Disk, or startup CD), and insert it. Follow the normal installation process.

A PRAM zap/desktop rebuild using a utility such as TechTool is a good idea too.
