Hi guys, I know PC's but am working on a mac that is a desktop, but has the hard drive and motherboard in a half circle casing and the monitor has a neck and is a flat display. I've never seen anything like it but it's a Mac. It's hanging up before the OS loads, being it's getting a continuous "processing" circle that keeps refreshing but the desktop never loads. No POST test, just straight to loading this hanging desktop (I don't know if Macs show POST tests). I want to reformat with the OS disks but cannot get the cd rom drive open being there is no button on it to make the cd rom drive open to put the cd in and the OS hangs before I can do it through software. Is there some kind of hotkey that makes the cd rom drive open to I can put the cd in it?
Thanks guys, sorry for the lame description but I'm totally out of my element here.
