Is this a new or used drive? Did you reformat it at some >>>> point? Here is where I am right now. I put the HD in my B&W and it did boot but only in 256 colors, resolution is very bad. Everything is working but screen very hard to read. I changed the start-up disk to 9.2 and re-booted and color came back. I put the drive back in the imac and it booted to 9.2. I re-installed 10.3 and all went well I ran the machine and then I decided to leave it on all night. But when I tried to wake it in the morning it was non-responsive, just spinning beach ball.
I switch drives again and but it back into 9 on the B&W and colors are back. 1 there is one partition on this drive can that be causing the problem? 2 can I partition the drive with-out loosing everything on it? 3 would the grey screen be caused by it being only to see 256 colors?
