I recently loaded my mothballed iMac 7,1 with Snow Leopard so that I could load El Capitan. I updated to 10.6.8 without a hitch. Then I downloaded the El Capitan install package (10.11) and run it and get a message that installation was successful. So why is my computer still running 10.6.8? I have 4GB RAM.

Simple minded and confused
Could it be that the installer downloaded but didn't install? Check in your Applications folder for "Install Mac OS El Capitan". If it is there then double-click to begin the install.

From your Applications/Utilities folder launch System Information > Software and see what it reports.
