Well, the OS9 one *might* work. I have a grey disc for OS9 and OSX
10.1 from an iBook (one of the first ones that shipped with OSX) and
they work fine on my other Macs, but this is rare and only happens
with the older ones.

Not even OS 9? Oh well, I'm sure I can find the right disc some day...

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.
