[QUOTE="MacHeadCase, post: 399178"] Of course you need to buy a legit copy! :| There are no problems booting up from a legally bought CD and reinstalling the OS. Follow [URL="http://www.apple.com/support/panther/install/"][B]these tips[/B][/URL] for the installation. I would not use the [I]Upgrade[/I] option during the installation process, you need to wipe the hard drive and install. If she needs OS 9 on it, hopefully she kept the CD kit that came with the iMac.
