I'm not subscribed to the imac list but I hope
somebody here will be able to help me. I found an imac
at the back of one of the cabinets in my classroom.
It's white with a round bottom. Apparently somebody
had installed system 9.2 since on startup the computer
crashes with the OS 9.2 startup box on the screen,
with the dialog box saying 'The system Software on the
startup disk only functions on the original media, not
if copied to another media.'Restart.
The problem is that I have no access to the cd
drive; the regular imac keyboard or mouse seems not to
be working on this computer - they both work on a
regular imac. What I want to do is have access to the
cd rom drive so that I can install a different OS. How
does one open the cdrom drive in this imac? There are
no buttoms or anything for me to press so as to open
the cdrom drive.
TIA for your help.
Pete.
