Greetings,

Please forgive me if I've missed something in an earlier post or a FAQ somewhere.

I inherited an iMac 400,,, 400MHZ/512k L2/128MB/13GB/56K/DVD/GR

The thing worked fine under 9.2. I went to upgrade it to OSX and it worked fine. Then I went to the Apple Website to upgrade the system software to 10.2... and the upgrade failed, twice. *Then* I read that I needed to do a firmware update, to 4.1.9, and that this firmware update needed to be done under 9.1 or .2 on a local drive. Sheesh.

So, I came in today to reinstall 9.1. The computer runs and the disk drive works, but I can't get the monitor to light up. Did I wreck something already? Is it related to the system OSX on the computer without the firmware update? Did the monitor just pick this particular moment to die?

I'd appreciate your thoughts, suggestions, ideas, directions to FAQ's.

best,
