Hi all, My faithful 1999 iMac Slot Loading has decided to stop working, when I boot it up all I get is a grey boot screen with the Apple logo but no spinning icon. The people in the Apple store told me to put in the install disk and hold down "c", but I do not have the original install disk. It was running OS X 10.3.9, and I have disks for 10.4.11 (iBook G4) and OS 9. Is there any way I can revive my iMac whilst hopefully keeping my files? If not, I would appreciate any help in just getting the thing running again... Thanks! N.B: I would rather not have it permanently booting into OS 9 if possible...
Nope, those CDs won't work. You will need a retail DVD or CD set. -- You received this message because you are a member of the iMac Group, a group for those using Apple iMacs and eMacs.
